Russian Meteor

   / Russian Meteor #34  
It's amazing how much damage even a small meteor can do, and it's only a matter of time before one is in the right place at the wrong time. I just hope I'm not around to see it.

the hiroshima bomb was small....

a MK 41 is a 25 MT device. hiroshima was a 16KT device.

MT=megaton

KT=kiloton

30x hiroshima is still pretty small beans..


So,,,,,, the USA now has a weapon that is like 30 times more destructive then the Hiroshima bomb? We need a Physicist to tell us if that is even reasonable. Any Physicists here?

Oh, and if it turns out we do have this kind of bomb at our disposal, I would think twice b4 poking the US in the eye with insults. Just saying.

Don't worry about it...you won't know what hit you. :eek:

Here is a yield chart of least to most powerful: Nuclear weapon yield - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Apparently, something 30 times Hiroshima isn't very much by comparison.

yep.. look at the tsar bomba. 50mt with lead tmaper.. 100mt with the depleted uranium tamper.

hiroshima is probably way smaller than a modern fuel air bomb or MOAB nowadays.

30x isn't anything with the new style thermonuclear 2 tage devices now...

Singalo, this guy is never thinking twice. He is a well known extremist and belongs to the genre of dirty politics humor in his country. Most people everywhere are just laughing at him. Don't treat this statement seriously mostly because he has said that for fear - what could it be if... :laughing::laughing: I wouldn't be surprised if he'd blame others for Tunguska meteor. Remember he said that "immediately after reports of a meteorite explosion appeared". No other similar reports were heard later from him, when the Meteor Investigation gave first results. But my favourite phrase stated by him was: "Why are the meteors never falling on them, why always only on us?! :laughing::laughing:

I didn't really take him seriously. I mean, why would the US test a weapon over Russia? Unless we were asking for a war, and then it would be more appropriate to drop the bomb ON Russia, and not over it.

I don't follow bomb tech, I was under the impression that a 300 KT explosion was pretty dang LARGE, considering what 20KT did to Hiro and all. But coming from the uninformed side, I must say that a 50-100 MT capability,,,,,,, I mean does anyone think the human race will be more then a flash in the pan? I have honestly lost hope for us as a species.
