Because the radius of the blast cannot be measured and satelights (artificial and natural) are in space.

But I thought you stated down here that it wont explode/combust?? Which one are we to believe now.

SirMichael1:
To fire, oxygen is an oxidizer. Take away oxygen from fire and the fire starves to death. If you detonate that in space without oxygen, i'm afraid that it won't explode/combust. Really, the radius of the blast is affected by the oxygen intake of the fire.

in fires, the core is the hotest part. This is so because fire absorbs oxygen to itself (its core) and expands out. The more fuel that oxygen combust/burns, the more heat in the core, the more its radius expands. That's why nothing can survive within the core of a nuclear blast.

Let's assume we provide oxygen for combustion while in space.
First, hope you know there's no gravity in space? In the earth, gravity and nitrogen gases make oxygen stay down on earth and that's why if you go higher skywards, oxygen reduces and it becomes difficult to breathe.

When the bomb is detonated, the blast will take an undefined shape but before that... first you'll see a spherical shape with a red (literally) core covered by a blue flame (more like the one from your gas cylinder). The blue flame signifies complete combustion without impurities. Now remember that on earth, oxygen is held down by gravity. In space no gravity, there's an undefined shape to which oxygen will take and whatever it takes, that is what the fire will take.

Now because there's no gravity pulling the oxygen to the fire's core, fires in space aren't as hot as it is here and they also burns slowly.

Go to the third paragraph.

Naturally, it won't combust because there's no oxygen in space but will combust if oxygen is supplied. You understand?

The cold war era was a period when Europeans and American lived in constant fear of nuclear annihilation. Thank God John F Kennedy and Nikitta Kruschev used their head during the Cuban missile crisis.

I guess you are talking about the Cuban missle crisis. Actually, it was the Soviet leader that calmed down. American Nuclear armed B-52s were already in orbit to strike USSR. It was Russia that backed down!

Ebenezerk2:
They are very crazy, USA has more powerful bombs but they don't make mouth, they are producing them because of crazy Russia and China, anything can happen, they value no life

The US makes mouth about military prowess than any other nation.

Blast of this magnitude fit disintegrate some extraterrestrial bodies maybe mars as it won't be done in just open space na...the force may serve as propellant pushing some large and small particles (large meteorites, asteroids) to earth (no matter how dynamic the outer space pressure may be)..DAT na double disaster as we no go fit predict where all go fall....abi

But why dem invent am in the first place sef..?

I never knew people on nairaland could be this funny. Funny write up, you think that mass could be projected up to space like a balloon blown away by wind.

Righteousness89:
That was a Huge Blast!
We have Had Various Blast in this Generation
Lebano, Syria, Saudi Arabia, etc

But There is a Blast that is to Come,
The Blast that Will Burst open the Graves of those who Died in Christ
The Blast that will Shake The World to its Foundation!
The Blast that would Change the Entire World.

It is the Blast of LAST TRUMP!

Get Ready For the Last Trump!!

IT is About to BLAST!

This bomb will useful in sambisa forest to finish the work once and for all.

How much self instead of our soldiers dieing everyday in the hand of Boko Haram.

crackhaus:

How can Tsar/Czar be your name when it's just the Russian equivalent of a king/emperor title?

Dey dia na, I don dash myself that name tey tey.

Pity the birds that flew overhead during detonation.

CzarChris:
Dey dia na, I don dash myself that name tey tey.

Lol, I hear you...

This Bomb Has been built since 1961 and still we don't have an iffective vaccine for all virus in 2020

kingxsamz:


You mean that book of fictional tales?
Yeah right.

why do they seem so far fetched to you

Common Meeenh

This is huge

jaxxy:
Doing all this shit for no good reason. Stuffs like this shud be for only defensive purposes if at all.

What kind of defensive purpose bro? A bomb of that magnitude isn't for defense, but annihilation.

How can you wipe out entire nation in the name of defense?

Offpoint:

That’s true.

Despite being detonated 4.2 kilometres (13,000ft) above ground, its seismic body wave magnitude was estimated at 5.0 - 5.25.

I was wondering why 13000 feet above the ground/target. Now, I got it! What if it was detonated on the ground?

agabusta:


Putin indeed . He was probably in primary school when this happened.

Who released the pictures?

jaxxy:


That’s true.

Have you heard of MAD?

Some countries are in possession of weapons that are capable of destroying the world.

Thanks Explorer.

I like more education on stuff like this.

(you think that mars ..projected up to..lol make these coherent abeg)

People on nairaland can be this funny. Did You just made this comment for the sake of just commenting abi what?. Did you read the post(s) that preceded and succeeded this reply?..well, if you did you wouldn't type this..we just making simple analysis bro
Lol Calm down...life no hard

What if you SHOOT a missile of HYDROGEN gas? will that explosion not turn to a SEA of water?

SirMichael1:
Hahaha. You're funny. I like funny people.

Using the principle of a fire extinguisher, you pour a chemical that reacts with fire to produce CO2 which quenches it. And no where did I mention taking oxygen from that explosion.

And example of how oxygen is needed for combustion: light a match stick and while it's still burning, quickly put it in your mouth and shut your mouth. The fire quenches immediately.

No.. wouldn't EARTH's geostationary ORBIT move the exploding FIRE all around. So it becomes a cloud of fire elements?

Welcome to nairaland, a forum where we mock fictitious characters like Jesus etc without any repercussion. I don't know if you are aware that currently Jehovah your god is in a spiritual cage. If you don't know, pls do. He is currently in a spiritual cage for 4 years now. Peace.

Hopefully, the world never gets to that point where the possibility of a nuclear war becomes reality.

These countries are not joking at all.

Obama's administration pushed for a world nuclear disarmament program to start reducing/destroying the total amounts of nuclear bombs owned by the world powers and persuade the smaller countries from building theirs. All that arrangement has now been trumped by the gold-aired man sitting on the Capitol.

Rvssia is muscle flexing. There's a psychological war going on

who will believe OBAMA?
THAT liar maggot.
he go then turn and kill the person like what they did to GADDHAFI

You're right but that effort was not backed by good faith from his own government.

I don't think Trump has much to do with it presently, because it was at a time like that where the statement leadership by example should have become very important.

How could Obama have been pushing for nuclear disarmament and expect other countries to take him serious when the US was keeping theirs intact?
Who nor wan protect him own side?

What if you SHOOT a missile of HYDROGEN gas? will that explosion not turn to a SEA of water?

In space? Will the heat from the sun not dry it up?

Making water isn't that easy an experiment. We know that 2 molecule of hydrogen and a molecule of oxygen undergoing an exothermic reaction will produce water. Now nature will easily produce water without man's input but producing water artificially isn't easily. The heat generated is intense, isolating the elements from nature is fvcking expensive. Besides, how can you shoot a missile of hydrogen gas? How many metric tonnes of the gas is need to make a drum of water? The hydrogen gas used as fuel for a jet engine can't make a drum of water if reacted with oxygen. Therefore, how much more do you need to make a sea, in space, with the massive heat coming from the sun without the water evaporating?.

�

not in space. on land. if we ignore the URANIUM OR PLUTONIUM particles that react to combustion. Oxygen will react with Hydrogen. Maybe we need many missiles loaded with Hydrogen warheads or compartments? for the sun evaporating water, encasing THE BOMB CLOUD in a dome may work. In Cheynobyl, I think they are EXPERIMENTING with a dome to stop the spread of radiation.

What fire? No dey ask me anyhow questions young man.

Shey the fire won't go off after the oxygen is used up? Also, after the nuclear weapon carries out fission reaction, what would the fire keep burning on? Don't you know that if the fuel of any fire is used up, the fire ceases? If firewood burn finish, shey the fire go still dey or if you on your gas and the gas finish, shey the fire go still dey burn?

There's a fine line between funny and annoying, you're crossing that line. Be guided.
