Re: TC Sparks and Arcs (Was - High Voltage Snubber caps

Mars is mostly CO2, Titan is Methane and ammonia, Jupiter is methane,
ammonia, and hydrogen, Saturn the same.

All in all, on a planet (or moon) with an atmosphere, the TC would look
much like it does on Earth, except that the color of the arcs would be
different, and the lengths would be different. The basic physics of arc
formation are the same, regardless.
