It deserved a re-post to stave off the DramaLlama.

And it's the 60th anniversary of Hiroshima.

[Aloone_Jonez]

Fair enough.

Did you search for the old tread or has it vanished and are you like me and can't be fucked?

[skyman8081]

It was binned

Because of asshole mods.

Bloody hell, that was a year ago, and it was a fine thread until solaris fucked it up oh well I'm glad he's gone - hopefuly for good he should've been banned anyway.

By the way, the world nuclear arsenal is currently NOT enough to be an Extenction Level Event.

The combined yeild of the entire nuclear arsenal is 13 Gigatons, the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs was 3.62 x 10^8 MegaTons(362 Teratons).  That didn't even finish the job.

The whole "ZOMG Nulcear War will WIPE out the earth" is bunk.

EDIT: revised figure.

Been looking at Dr Strangelove lately, haven

The bombs won't destroy the planet, but the radiations will likely kill pretty much everything on it that doesn't live underground.

[skyman8081]

In regards to radiation:

Alpha and Beta Radiation are relatively harmless, a newspaper sheet or clothing will stop it.

Gamma radiation is a bit nastier, but nothing that those aprons the doctors give you during X-rays couldn't handle.

If you want to know more, I reccomand you visit the RSICC

Anyone got more good websites with pictures and movie clips of nuclear explosions?

They're pretty

Dont the us have over 200 Nukes or something like that?

By the way, the world nuclear arsenal is currently NOT enough to be an Extenction Level Event.

The combined yeild of the entire nuclear arsenal is 13 Gigatons, the asteroid that wiped out the dinosaurs was 48.8 Teratons.  That didn't even finish the job.

The whole "ZOMG Nulcear War will WIPE out the earth" is bunk.

I'm still not convinced, if there was a nuclear war the countries would make a hell of a load more neuclear weapons. Sure the world's entire neulear arsenal might not be big enough at the moment to destroy the world but  that might be a differant story after a neuclear arms race.

here is one,


Here a weird one

Heres one more,

[skyman8081]

Yes, that's a nuke.  It's called a Davy Crockett.

Very low yeilds, selectable between 10-250 tons.
