Nuclear Engineer reacts to Kurzgesagt 'What if We Nuke the Moon?'

[TheSpinkels]

The Tsar Bomba was the 100Mt bomb you're thinking of.
It was just reduced in yield to 50Mt by removing its third fusion detonation stage because otherwise it would have had a 100% chance of roasting the pilots dropping it instead of only 50%

thank you for the great reaction, it was nice to have your informed input without pausing every second and appreciating the video. The original video was just a bit too quiet compared to your audio so if it's possible to balance it a bit more for your next one, that would be lovely!

So glad you eventually fixed these audio issues. Most people can deal with flaky video, but audio has to be clear.

The only way we could actually make this work is by playing a giant game of centuries long celestial dominoes, using nukes to nudge small asteroids to nudge larger asteroids until we're moving dwarf planets around and sending them to gravitationally interact with the moon or collide.

They say a meteor shower would hit Earth, but it would only leave a creator similar to others. When do we see meteor showers from Moon impacts?
