North Korea said Tuesday it would restart a nuclear reactor to feed its atomic weapons programme, in its clearest rebuff yet to UN sanctions at the heart of soaring tensions on the Korean peninsula. Videographic explaining how underground nuclear tests are carried out.

Little fuzzy on the exact details but I saw something about a manhole cover placed on top of the borehole of an underground test in the 50's video of the test showed the 40 pound cover ejected straight up upon detonation. It was only seen in like 1 or 2 frames of the "high speed" film of the day. Based on the estimates of distance in the frame and the film speed, they were able to extrapolate that the manhole cover was traveling somewhere between 35,000 and 55,000 mph, if I remember correctly. That would make it the fastest man made object ever. It was essentially a fission powered potato gun. I really wish I'd been born in like 1922. People used to watch nuclear testing from parties at the pools of casinos in Las vegas.

@HailAnts Жыл бұрын

Yeah, that did happen. Sort of. It was one of the first underground nuclear tests, Pascal-B in 1957, and it wasn't merely a 'manhole cover', it was a piece of steel armor that weighted 2000 lbs. It was supposed to contain the blast, but most scientists doubted it would. It was indeed captured on just one frame of a high-speed camera, which determined it was traveling at 150,000 mph! There were notions that it went into space, but these were and have been proved wrong. Traveling at that speed in the atmosphere vaporized it almost immediately.

@StephenJohnson-jb7xe Жыл бұрын

Yes I have heard of that too and I always wondered how fast both of the Voyager spacecraft are travelling. To answer my own question I looked it up Voyager 1, 61,185 kilometers per hour (38,019 mph) and Voyager 2, 55,335 kilometers per hour (34,384 mph) so I guess this beats them.

Underground is by far and away the safest way to test nuclear weapons. Nuclear weapons aren't nearly powerful enough to effect platetectonics. Think of this way: when mount saint Helens erupted due to pressure built up from plate subduction, it caused an explosion greater than all the nuclear weapons that have ever been detonated, all at once. And that's the little far of energy that reached the surface. You wouldn't want to test near aquifers, which is why Utah and Nevada were used.

How to make a Hydrogen bomb at home! So, hydrogen compresses 900x original size before it is liquefied! Oxygen around 800x! HH, and O gas without being pressurised is 2x more explosive than TNT! Meaning liquid H, and liquid O at a 2:1 ratio is 1750x more explosive than TNT! What happens when you put an explosive under pressure, e.g. a Graphene coated explosive? It becomes even more explosive! Deuteride (an isotope of Hydrogen) is used in H-bombs, and has a freezing point of 3.8 degrees Celsius in a water molecule! This is heavy water! Then you use electrolysis, and follow the same steps of making liquid hydrogen, so you have liquid deuterium! Now we know that different isotopes of Hydrogen have different melting points, that is also true with lithium (another vital ingredient to a large fusion H-bomb! Lithium melts at 180.5 degrees Celsius, now all you need is to store it in paraffin wax, the paraffin wax has a flash point of 199 degrees Celsius! Heat up the paraffin wax, and you will be able to separate the isotopes of lithium! You will then have one liquid isotope, and one solid! Just filter! You now have the basic building blocks for a large H bomb! Ofcourse liquid H, and liquid O must be stored separately, so you have another set of smaller tanks to make sure it gets the perfect 1750 mixture! You then place the liquid deuteride, and lithium in the centre! Place this device under pressure, the more pressure, the larger the explosion, and the better the fusion. Graphene, dyneema, etc! Pressure is great, it's vital for fusion

The case in North Korea has proven underground tests to be no safer than atmospheric tests, since underground waters can easily be contaminated and spread huge areas of radiation. Now if we dump spent nuclear fuel underground, it's like Fukushima disaster. It's very interesting that even in Japan, they could only locate & see the actual melting cores after 6 years of painstaking effort; it's in the recent news. Now you can imagine what other things they don't know and can't mitigate, like the leaks and huge areas affected (since it's very close to the ocean).
