A '''glowstick''' is a sealed, flexible [[plastic]] tube which contains a [[chemical]] compound. Nested inside the flexible tube is capsule of brittle plastic containing a different compound. When the glowstick is bent sufficiently, the capsule breaks and the two chemicals mix and produce the epynonymous glow. Glowsticks were once exclusively green, but now come in a variety of colours.

Glowsticks produce no fumes, no heat, are almost unbreakable, and their glow lasts for many hours (usually all night). Should a glowstick be breached, however, the internal chemical fluids should never be consumed, as they can make you quite sick.
