Ground Burst or Air burst?
How many bombs?
If there is a lot of fallout, USA has 2 weeks to prepare. Probably not a big deal. Most bombs fallout follows the 7/10 rule.
the truth is they probably dont know because it has never happened
So white girls were choking on black semen a minute ago and now all of the sudden they're stormfront?
Whatever the trend is and whoever is winning, that's who the women are with.
Not going to happen, fake and gay
they dont even have H bombs so not much
hopefully they kill a lot of each other though
3/5 so far

In close enough to that
HOW MUCH OF A DANGER IS THE NUCLEAR WORLD WAR POO?
None
Will that be all?
How many bombs?
How about the number of bombs they have dipshit?
I hate idiots who try to sound smart and just make shit up and vomit words out of their mouthes
We tested hundreds of nukes extrapolation exist
Useless memeflag
Wait they don’t? Lmao what? I’m pretty sure I could make a H bomb out of only deuterium and its store shelf easy to buy
nothing ever happens, anon
Nuclear Scientists posting on Anon Babble
Funny
The US military will hold back some bombs in a nuke war as a deterrent. You use all your bombs, then there's no point in the enemy holding back, is there?
Why so angry and arrogant, frog bro? Don't lose your head over this.
And wear your covid mask, much safer that way.
Wait they don’t? Lmao what?
Yep they still only have 1940s style fission bombs
Even North Korea has H bombs lmao
One of the three most polluted rivers in the world comes from India. The big thing would be the pollution of the river that goes into Pakistan, which would collapse Pakistan. Overall, I genuinely don't think it will be a big deal.
The US military will hold back some bombs in a nuke war as a deterrent.
We’re talking about Pakistan India
America is not involved
You use all your bombs, then there's no point in the enemy holding back, is there?
If the maximum number of nukes are used and it doesn’t have impact elsewhere that saves you the effort of having to computing what would happen with other numbers of warheads which is why you start with that number, basic computational efficiency
Why so angry
People are fucking retarded and I’m tired of it
and arrogant,
People are fucking retarded and I’m tired of it
And wear your covid mask, much safer that way.
I get you try to associate me with that guy because were both french but I’m not the kind of person who puts himself in a position where they can be killed easily, let alone without the other side shedding more blood first
if you were an expert you would know how often extrapolation fucking fails in the real world you fucking frog.
7.5 MW of installed nuclear in India, Chernobyl reactor 4 was 250KW. Most of the south would get poisoned, probably China and Africa as well, the ME as well. It would be an unstoppable death cloud.
Not very
Nuclear winter is only even feasible if the powers launching nukes are specifically trying to accomplish it by targeting forests instead of cities or missile bases (they don't do this)
Fallout drift could be a risk but you have time to prepare like others said so it'll be short term damage no biggie
The actual danger is that nuclear war means all of the fun toys come out, and some of those are extremely dangerous bioweapons that can't be feasibly contained, and could cause an actual global pandemic with double digit fatality rates like the plague
Chemical weapons thankfully are only horrendous for their targets, not the general population uninvolved in that war
kike media blames everything on the holocaust
spammed worst event in history: holocaust
no nukes involved in the holocaust
let's fuck around and find out, I think we would get an award for nuclear detonations like Oppenheimer did last year
Yep they still only have 1940s style fission bombs
That feels insanely absurd
The designs are known too
The American bombs use surface annihilation compression mostly, using mirrors (any heavy element should do, use tungsten carbide or whatever)
A boosted device seems easier to do, I have not ran the math on the compression efficiency, intuitively it feels a bit lower because mirror type H bombs use radiation going out too while boosted (Hydron core) bombs obviously only get to use the things going inwards
The blueprints we see online either use a cylinder or some sort of elyptoid ball shape, for the secondary charge, and in all cases use fissiles on the outside to contain the fusion fuel
I don’t know if neutron moderation is needed in nukes, I assume not, but if it is just mix a bit of a neutron moderating element into your fusion fuel and that would work
Oh my god, that would save the earth
is he okay
if you were an expert you would know how often extrapolation fucking fails in the real world you fucking frog.
How does multiplying the fallout of one bomb by the number of bombs drop fail
Like give me even one hypothetical scenario where it’s not a direct linear relationship
(they don't do this)
Keep in mind both the us and soviets had like 60k nukes each during the Cold War
Nowadays it’s like 3k, officially
Power plants are legit 10x worse in a nuke scenario than the bombs, most modern nukes are pretty clean except for the Russian cobalt tsunami bomb. Correct me if I'm wrong please, nuclear anons, I'm just an EE who loves physics.
are we trying to kill the planet in a scorched earth "fuck you" or are we trying to hit key areas to just destroy the country's ability to fight.
No nukes are really clean but Colbat salted nukes are true end of the world type weapons.
But what I mean is, if nuclear fallout fucked up China,India,SEA and parts of Africa it would be a blessing to the earth
They have about 300 bombs between them and most of the are between 45-70 kt, which isn't huge. Everyone in the Indian subcontinent is fucked as well as many in the middle east and surrounding countries. Hundreds of millions of poos will die initially and billions later on. The world might experience a cooling period but theorists disagree on the effects of nuclear winter. It can be certain that global temps will go down though, from a just a decimal to a couple degrees. The lower the more people die from famine world wide. However, If you live in a civilized country, you should be okay.
turd world would be flushed down the toilet
the day of the soap
It doesn't matter, since doing that means you're going from a 'you can't win' to 'nobody can win'
You'd literally be nuking yourself to spite the entire world, which isn't how rational actors work
It's the state version of disemboweling yourself in front of random people on the bus just to traumatize them
Reminder if the US stays out of the war, it also means we have 0 responsibility for any refugees or aid.
we are already taking in millions of rapefugees anyway including jeets swarming in for ziondon and Eglin musk program
This post is very antisemitic.
Yes, I just want to inform more about the probable multi meltdown following an exchange, it's honestly so much scarier. We can't remove ALL the topsoil on earth.
Good. Fuck kikes. Gas em all.
I want one
I could make one with enough helium, a big solar lens; a high pressure pump ,sulfuric acid, a tram and a little bit of u235
World war poo is upon us bros. Which poo do you think will flush easier? Cheggem
Correct me if I'm wrong please, nuclear anons
Ok so me
The basics:
radiation
either your isotopes are normal either they have bipolar disorder and randomly explode
how schizo your atoms are in turn decides how many of them pop per second + how long it takes them on average to pop + the half life
you have a finite number of atoms
That means that how much radiation any... idk object will create in total from now until the end of the universe is limited by its number of atoms
Basically every time an atom pops it releases radiation
An atom can pop and become two stable atoms or two schizo atoms who will also pop
But more importantly this is all finite
It means that no matter how fast the radioactive decay is/how radioactive a material is/how long the half life is, it will release a finite amount of radiation, after which it becomes inert and non radioactive
Some specific isotopes will have decay chain that multiply that amount of radiation by a finite number, like idk 2 to 7
This basically all means that the total radioactivity released is limited by the amount of radioactive material
This is why radiation is a meme in general. If you wanted to give radiation poisoning to an entire country you would do shit like refining and mining thousands of TONS of uranium 235/233/radium, turn it into a powder, and spray that powder over the enemy country
So what are cobalt bombs? Simple
A nuke is very inefficient, fuses like 1% of its fissiles and disperses the rest
The radiation it generate also contact the rest of the bomb, the metal case, the explosives.... those atoms can and do get transformed into radioactive isotopes
The dispersed fissiles+ the transmutated bomb case are basically turned into a gas/fine powder, that is unstable and therefore radioactive
In other words how much radiation a bomb created is directly linked to how heavy it is, and mostly comes from the unused fissile fuel
if nukes were that dangerous then why did Oppenheimer win best picture? you expect me to believe a random Anon Babble poster over everyone in the media and all the scientists?
From my understanding the salted nukes are normal H bombs with a stable cobalt jacket around the device, which then transmutates through neutron capture into cobalt 60 and makes an area inaccessible for several decades.
The nukes are not a problem.
The real issue comes from the sheer volume of shit that will be sent into the atmosphere.
You've heard of nuclear winter?
No, instead it's going to be nuclear poo. Raining down constantly for months, maybe years.
Imagine the smell.
Cobalt bombs then just surround a nuke in an element that they hope maximises how many atoms of the nuke will be turned into radioactive elements
In case you don’t understand what it’s about, it’s literally just trying to turn non radioactive cobalt radioactive because it’s cheaper and easier than mining and refining radioactive material
It at best would increase the already negligible radioactivity of a nuke by like 2 to 5.
Of course surrounding a nuke in a dense sphere of metal increased the weight a lot which limits what missiles can yeet it, what planes can carry it, how far it can go etc
Basically radiation is a joke and cobalt bombs are just cope, desperately trying to create more radioactive stuff through nuclear alchemy
As for tsunami bombs... no idea what that means, I can maybe think of a few designs that MAYBE could slightly increase performance at creating waves (throwing water around in a more specific and directional way)
However any nuke placed in water at a certain depth will create waves, how big depends on the nuke, it’s not like there’s a special type of device that can make tsunamis, any nuke will generate a tiny tsunami, and to get a huge tsunami you would need a huge nuke
Nothing to do with cobalt bombs, cobalt bombs literally shield everything around them inside cobalt in hopes of turning that cobalt into radioactive gas
Like maybe one ton of radioactive material lmao
If you build tens of thousands of cobalt bombs MAYBE it’s an issue worth consideration but that’s about it
If you want a tsunami you wouldn’t put a normal nuke inside a thick metal shell
Even though some nukes will get shot down, when their system collapses, they will act let out their inner poo in ways you've never seen before.
imagine taking in a nuclear rapugee who has nothing to lose and has seen hell
We wont have the worst of it, but the retarded countries which take in refugees will.
Fellow whites, hopefully your countries don't capitulate.
So Russia's radioactive tsunami posturing is mostly BS? Curious, I was under the impression that cobalt bombs were actually end game type weapons.
Origin of this chick?
They have about 300 bombs between them and most of the are between 45-70 kt, which isn't huge.
Yes
Everyone in the Indian subcontinent is fucked
No
as well as many in the Middle East and surrounding countries.
No
Hundreds of millions of poos will die
Hopefully
Possibly
But with 600 nukes even that is a high estimate
initially and billions later on.
Very unlikely, it’s not like the Indian transportation system doesn’t already consist of dirt roads and rickety trucks
The world might experience a cooling period
Absolutely not
but theorists disagree on the effects of nuclear winter.
Well there wouldn’t be one lol
A global winter has pretty well known effects everyone starves from global crop failures
But a nuclear winter is fear mongering about a context where 100 000 nukes would be launched including many at forests and wooden cities
It’s a concept entirely based on aerosol= ash and nukes don’t produce ash, wood does
It can be certain that global temps will go down though, from a just a decimal to a couple degrees.
Décimal
The lower the more people die from famine world wide.
The higher the better!
However, If you live in a civilized country, you should be okay.
Beyond ok
I don’t think it’s even guaranteed a single person would die as a side effect or direct effect of the war in western nations if the poos used all 600 nukes
Fuck sake.. we're going to have hailstorms of shits
Would you drop nukes
Yes
Why
Just because
People forget how many nukes were set off during testing, up to massive yields.
could get smelly but nothing not worth it
Reminds me of children of a dead earth lore
Anyways the whole game theory American planners use for nuclear war is completely flawed and nonsensical but that’s a different issue
Even saying how could lead to it being fixed and I prefer the fact they have that vulnerability so I’ll keep my mouth shut
Just know game theory is retarded and a terrible way to do strategy and either take my word for it or don’t but this kind of stuff is too important and unknown for me to discuss
the danger is one of critical ass. if a detonation were to reach critical ass the resulting explosion would cause the universe to prolapse and none would survive.
indian nukes follow 7/11 rule and pakistan nukes 9/11
HOW MUCH OF A DANGER IS THE NUCLEAR WORLD WAR POO?
Talk about a dirty bomb.
country=redeemed
nuclear winter happens and stock market crashes
politicians and business owners furious
in order to control the plebians, you make our lives a living hell. why should we care that nukes will ruin your lives? I say we advocate for nuclear war because it seems like things always get worse for us anyway
Stay underground for a week and stock up on pectin just in case. Try not to eat any dust that settles. You’ll be fine. Pakis have nothing to lose so long as jeets threaten their water supply they are fucked either way. Jeets will probably fuck up damning the river and flood half their country. Water in excess or absence will likely kill more poos and pakipoos than all of their nukes will, should we get all out happenings.
The most likely scenario where nukes are used and it doesn’t destroy the rest of the world imo
I want one
I could make one with enough helium, a big solar lens; a high pressure pump ,sulfuric acid, a tram and a little bit of u235
I mean genuinely yeah
Not sure why you plan to do with helium 4 though
Don’t get me wrong I like the whole nuclear alchemy business and transmutating isotopes and stuff, but I don’t see how you could get a useful quantity of anything in a backyard with alchemy
Chemistry is enough to compress fissiles into a critical mass, and fusion boosting a nuke is as simple as putting light elements in the center
I’m pretty sure a decently sized basketball sized nuke could perform D-D fusion non catalytic through direct core collapse
I just don’t see why you wouldn’t put deuterium all around and inside every H bomb, you know just in the event
Thats of course if you don’t have access to stuff you actually want like beryllium tritium lithium 6 all that jazz
My point being that deuterium is piss easy to obtain and you should still be able to make pretty hydron flames with it if you’re a broke pajeet and you don’t have no tritium
Nobody has been nuked harder than the US nuked itself, other than maybe Russia, but pretty sure they weren’t quite as retarded, or at least had more land to work with.
Check’em.
Can’t believe a meme flag made such a good post.
Fuck the experts. We have no clue what’s going to happen but whatever happens they will absolutely wreck each other and 99.9% of the rest of humanity will suffer 0 effects
Il saying nukes aren’t that dangerous which is true
However the major powers have a lot of nukes which make them a major problem
The USA and soviets each built more than 100 thousand warheads
Those are the kind of numbers you’re dealing with in nuclear MAD
600 nukes is nowhere near enough to create enough fallout to even be a consideration
Probably just double background level after hours... I could be 2 orders of magnitude off on that guess and it wouldn’t even matter
H bombs with a stable cobalt jacket
Yeah that’s exactly what you said that’s what I described in the second part of the most, sorry i couldn’t post the full reply at once due to character limit
But basically it’s as simple as=
the more radioactive material you have the more radiation (total) it will output
radioactive material is hard to get
cobalt bombs are just an idea to surround bombs in a non radioactive l’isotope to create more radioactive isotopes
Keep in mind that this should happen even without cobalt, I would do it with steel considering iron is the most nuclearly stable element and all that, however if you just use any heavy ish or even light element and surround a nuke with it, a lot of it would be turned into radioactive isotopes
I assume they chose cobalt cobalt 59 because they think/know that it would result is more efficiency In terms of how much is converted to radioactive stuff than other elements
The truth is that they may have been flexing harder than what they can bite and we don’t even know if their nukes are even real or work at all. They might have just been flexing on each other this whole time.
Do you know that poos congregate compactly in large cities and that radiation can travel on wind currents and in water ways, killing many more?
We don't know if nuclear winter is real, but your example is an exaggeration. It was based off realistic city construction and some have done studies on an Indian Pakistan war with those results.
This frogman has only watched shit on complete nuclear war rather than isolated nuclear war.
In the surrounding countries casualties are guaranteed, the wind and water dictate he amount. Eastern Asia has the Himalayas as a shield but anywhere else could get it bad
And perhaps they also hope a lot of those newly created elements from cobalt nuclear reaction would be what I talked about, isotopes that have decay chains = isotopes that decay like 10 times instead of once
However I kinda have my doubts about that part because the environment inside and around a nuke would be very chaotic, like you would get all kind of random ass particles and atoms of all size and shapes flying all in all directions
I assume that maybe they look at cobalt + gamma rays or cobalt + neutrons or zone other shit, and one of them just happens to create an isotope that has a long decay chain
If I were to guess and reverse engineer their thought process it would be that
But you’re talking about making nukes weaker for like 5 times more radiation, heavier harder to transport and deliver nukes, and you need to find a ton of cobalt 59 and good luck just with that
The amount of radiation in all cases is proportional to the amount of radioactive materials... if you disperse a few tons over a huge area like India... basically 0 effect
And I assume it would be measured in kilograms per nuke not tons
So even if they get their ideal scenario where they have pure cobalt 59 perfectly reacting with neutrons and it gives them their nice long decay chain, and it’s like... idk 11 times more radioactive than a regular nuke... ok so what you’re still talking about like 100 kg of radioactive stuff x 11
Overall if you want really deadly nukes look towards planet deleting doomsday devices, they work, radiation bombs are a meme
low, but if it happens will give Putin and idea of much leverage he really has with their nukes
100s of millions of poos and pakis will die
refugees are the biggest issue for everyone
0%
Nukes aren't real
Who is this semen demon?
Srsly? Just because.
Nuclear war is inevitable
Almost zero. War keep the business going, otherwise why does do much money into research and development of weapons, those things aren't for show, expect this war to go on for at least for years.
newfag
So Russia's radioactive tsunami posturing is mostly BS?
Ive never done any finite emelemnt analysis of a nuke creating a big high pressure bubble of steam in water lol how would I know
I can tell you that the total energy of the wave spread over all its length will be proportional to the energy of the nuke use, and that all nukes should produce tsunamis about the same, with POTENTIALLY some shape charge type nukes being slightly more efficient at converting an explosion into a wave but not by much
Overall anyone can make small tsunamis by blowing up nukes below the water
There’s probably an optimal depth etc
It’s what supercomputers are doing
Curious, I was under the impression that cobalt bombs were actually end game type weapons.
I mean what, you put a nuke that weighs 50 kg and will create let’s be generous 50 kg of radioactive material with idk on average 3 fission event per chain, so that’s like 150kg of fallout, modulo the molar density (number of atoms per mass), which we can represent by a factor averaging out the weights, and in your nukes you have uranium/plutonium (heavy), then stuff like nitrogen oxygen in the explosives, tungsten (heavy) for the casing, maybe steel
So they averages to... idk like middle heavy element? Maybe 2 rds of the way to uranium?
Tungsten is like 180, uranium is like 230, nitrogen and the rest is like 0
So you’d get idk 150? Something like that as your average factor(this is a new notion I’m inventing for convenience no physicist uses this)
So you have your cobalt, cobalt is 60, let me look up what it turns into
I looked it up and I don’t get it
Their plan is to turn cobalt 59 into cobalt 60 through neutron bukake
However cobalt 60 has a half life of like 5 years and turns into a completely stable isotope of nickel
So under intimal conditions it only creates a single natural fission event there is no decay chain
This makes so little sense it makes me wonder if cobalt is not disinformation
neutron bukake
This is why I come here.
I should clarify, when I say realistic city construction, I mean modern construction materials. India and Pakistan are made of shit which will burn and go into the stratosphere.
Anyways you have your ball of 50kg of nuked nuke, I picked 3 decays on average but maybe that’s high, let’s say 2, so you have like 100kg of fission events in all of its existence
You divide that by 150 to give you this sort of made up but proportional number of fission event metric that’s give you 0.666
So if you put 200kg of cobalt 59 around that?
Well assuming that you turn 50% of it into cobalt 60, since it only decays once, this would be 100kg/60 which is 1.6
So basically you need to line tons of cobalt and you barely x3 your radioactive output
My math could be off by I’d say a factor of 50 right now, it’s very quick simplified math but from what I’m reading I don’t get it at all, cobalt seems like a terrible choice to create fallout, why not pick something with a long decay chain
Again it feels like desinfo either they’re hiding what they really planned to use or lie about what they needed cobalt for
Are you wanting death numbers? blast radius and collateral damage? Or the nuclear fallout and nuclear winter depending on wind? Need to be a little specific?
I hope it happens. But I hope they get like 100% exterminated and nobody stays alive.
Do you know that poos congregate compactly in large cities and that radiation can travel on wind currents and in water ways, killing many more?
Fair enough
Again the radiation is a joke nukes kill by burning you alive and turning the air into fire
We don't know if nuclear winter is real, but your example is an exaggeration. It was based off realistic city construction and some have done studies on an Indian Pakistan war with those results.
Agai as far as I know nuclear winter was pretty much made up and exaggerated to deter a nuclear exchange, basically going "if you nuke us that would create the end of the world!"
I just don’t see how 600 neighborhoods of Indian slums made out of concrete bricks and steel sheet roofs could somehow create enough aerosols to cool the earth by several degrees
That feels too high by a factor of 1000 or 100
Anyways also remember how winds work: the broth and south hemisphere tend to be separated, so most of the aerosols would stay floating over the Southern Hemisphere, which is mostly oceans and deserts
This frogman has only watched shit on complete nuclear war rather than isolated nuclear war.
I mean if you have a credible measurement for 600 slums creating enough ash to cool the earth by 10 degrees be my guest
In the surrounding countries casualties are guaranteed, the wind and water dictate he amount.
A nuclear winter would instantly be a global thing it’s not a countries near by thing
It would take around a day to spread the aerosols over a band going all around the earth at the latitude the nukes exploded, a day with slightly less sunlight doesn’t cause winter it’s called a cloudy day
Eastern Asia has the Himalayas as a shield but anywhere else could get it bad
No aerosols that create nuclear winter are high altitude, far higher than the Himalayas
Anything that low wouldn’t stay in suspension long enough to reduce heat going to earth
Stay underground for a week and stock up on pectin just in case. Try not to eat any dust that settles. You’ll be fine. Pakis have nothing to lose so long as jeets threaten their water supply they are fucked either way. Jeets will probably fuck up damning the river and flood half their country. Water in excess or absence will likely kill more poos and pakipoos than all of their nukes will, should we get all out happenings.
It really is how it works
Most radiation in any event that creates random isotopes will be gone in hours/days
Simply because the more radioactive something is the shorter it lasts
As for the fallout... well firstly it’s in really small quantity, then it’s not magic
Winds stay in corridors, bands like Jupiter
The south hemisphere would get it, as for the water pollution, it would go into the Indian Ocean... just don’t eat fish from around Madagascar or Australia for a year after the nukes I guess
The water exchange between the Indian Ocean and North Atlantic in terms of volume is extremely small
And you’re talking about the weight of every nuke, spread over the entire global ocean
You probably have more radiation from sun generated tritium going columbine than you would from the fallout from all paki + Indian nukes
radiation is a joke
When you loke at any projections in a nuclear war, the majority come after the nukes due to radiation or civil conflict.
there is plenty of wood in the surrounding regions of major cities, and from what I've seen they need at least some wood and that's enough for their huts as well as the trash.
10 degrees
not by a long shot, I'm thinking a couple of degrees considering the size of their nukes and how many will be shot down.
global thing
It will be global but it will affect their neighbors most.
Himalayas
I can consent to that point, frenchbro
kek
sorry drunk
It'll be more dangerous after tomorrow's garam masala pot luck
Don't worry about the fallout, worry about spiking food prices and the flood of refugee from the area. Those are the biggest threats. A nuclear conflict between India and Pakistan will make the Syrian refugee crisis look like child's play.
due to radiation or civil conflict.
Due to starvation lol
Disruption of the supply chain
"Civil conflict" as in people fighting to death over bean cans?seems like the lack of food is the issue here, any ethnostate would not have any civil upheaval from the collapse of governement authority and law enforcement
I'm thinking a couple of degrees considering the size of their nukes and how many will be shot down.
Again I’m think more like a couple tenths of a degree considering the number of nukes they have
Anyways a couple degrees so long as we’re talking idk 3 wouldn’t do much, crops tend to fail if there are sub zero temperatures
It will be global but it will affect their neighbors most.
Again it gets up into the atmosphere quickly
You don’t have a stationary country sized dust cloud stay in place for months that just doesn’t exist
Look at volcanoes
Ash plume that looks like a worm and goes vertically and maybe a bit sideways with wind
Then it hits a different thermal layer and plateaus, stays flat
Then it falls out, and some, the lighter particles get carried to the stratosphere
Nuclear winter is about so much atmospheric aerosols that it changes the albedo of the entire planet, as in it would be visible to the naked eye, so much aerosols the sky appears barely dusty, and from space barely white
Here a model of the ones on earth
youtube.com
The ones that stay in place do so because they’re constantly being regenerated like over the Sahara
Plus maybe the different terrain created a sort of local trap somehow, but more likely it’s just fine desert dust becoming long suspension aerosols
People are fucking retarded and I’m tired of it
You're a whiney bitch and not as smart as you think you are
would you mind consult picrel?
Shit, let it be known that a Frenchman has been right about something
Again the radiation is a joke nukes kill by burning you alive and turning the air into fire
There's different types of nuke.
Some explode super high up in the air. Those ones triangulate a huge area and ignites fires and can melt your face off.
The problem is, anyone behind a standing structure such as a building or a tree, won't be scorched. They might die from fires ignited around them, but in a city it's less effective.
You can also airburst low. This allows the shockwave to expand freely, and then fall down onto the city. It takes out a much wider area, pushing over buildings.
The worst of all is the groundburst, which irradiates dust, soil, and particulates, which rise up into the atmosphere and poison the land all around. The super big ones can lift the material all the way to the jetstream and spread the poison worldwide.
Russia has historically had super inaccurate targeting, so they just build huge nukes to compensate, and don't really give a fuck about airburst. This is the worst of all worlds, huge weapons that kick up maximum radiation. That is going to destroy the planet. I would expect India and Pakistan to have the same sort of weapons, especially Pakistan.
The radioctive material devolves into numerous semi-stable isotopes that can lurk in the groundwater for centuries. That shit will be in your crops.
Today's high cancer rates are somewhat traceable to all the nuclear testing they were doing back in the 50's and 60's, although they really don't want you to know that. A global nuclear war would be absolutely catastrophic.
and can melt your face off.
All nukes can melt your face off
The only reason nuked have a shockwave at all is because they heat up the air so much it creates an explosion from thermal expansion of a literal gas alone
Nukes are primarily incendiary devices, huge nukes are so good at creating heat they have other side effects like a blast, but a nuke with a strong blast will absolutely cook you alive from far away in an instant
Not to mention it instantly heats up the air to hotter than fire, so you get burned from the initial EM radiation burst, and the you get cooked from the inside and outside by the hot air, you literally breathe in fire
but in a city it's less effective.
Cities made out of wood create firestorms in which case it’s much worse, that was the case with the 2 Japanese cities, most of the casualties came from that which is why they were so deadly despite being small
A city of concrete commiblocks wouldn’t take damage that catastrophic if the same nukes were dropped, people not too close to the blast would survive with the commieblocks acting as sufficient bunkers... just hide in a room far away from the blown out windows until fresh air rushes in
You can also airburst low. This allows the shockwave to expand freely,
Not just that
It creates a double shockwave off flat ground
It’s the idea. It’s like a ball and it reflects off the ground, so you get two overlapped shockwaves going horizontally.
The worst of all is the groundburst, which irradiates dust, soil, and particulates, which rise up into the atmosphere and poison the land all around.
I’m skeptical of the idea that a nuke near the ground would do that a lot more... like an air burst would have the same effect, not on dirt (made of carbon nitrogen iron hydrogen oxygen and silicate) but on the atmosphere (nitrogen and oxygen)
It’s not like the radiation would escape into space, the sideway and downward radiation still smashes into atoms, in the air, and nuclear chemistry and transmutation still happens
So I think you’re wrong about that, both should generate comparable amounts of radioactive isotopes... maybe a bit more from decay chains with the higher variety of elements near the ground and heavier ones
Russia has historically had super inaccurate targeting,
I mean surely they upgraded that by now
Thinking a country won’t have better targeting than they did before computers were invented seems like extremely delusional wishful thinking
so they just build huge nukes
Do they? I was under the impression that the minuteman American nukes were higher yield than any Soviet ones
I don’t know the nuke warhead strengths by head or even memory at all
The radioctive material devolves into numerous semi-stable isotopes that can lurk in the groundwater for centuries.
Again I explained all that in detail in my previous posts
What you’re talking about here is the decay chains I was referring to
But the fact it takes centuries also means it’s not very radioactive
Again, the total amount of radiation released by matieral depends on the number of atoms, times how many step the chain to a stable isotope takes them. That’s it.
So it’s all about number of atoms (comparable enough to mass). You need thousands upon thousands of tons of radioactive isotopes, hundreds of thousands of tons, millions of tons to cover a continent in significant amount of radiation
It should be illegal for anyone other than Europeans and Japanese to have nuclear energy.
Not to be that guy but Fukushima isn’t in India
Sorry I can’t help it I HAVE to be that guy, playing devils advocate and pissing off people for laughs is just too engrained in my nature
