- We have the best fans, and you guys suggest some really interesting topics for videos. Here at The Infographics Show we end up being curious enough ourselves to find the answers. In today's fan submission we're going to find out what happens if an asteroid was hurtling toward Earth and we detonated a nuke to save humanity. It's a pretty interesting idea with an even more interesting scientific answer.

It’s cool that we are to a point now as humans that we could even attempt to do something about an asteroid headed our way, insane

@@jonathonmyles172 yeah. You're wrong though, NASA have written papers on it dude. Yes it's in a vacuum so the outcome is different, the energy is still expelled it through heat it doesn't just vanish. Yes you're correct in saying there's no fire, but there's still energy...

"We may end up with a shattered moon. But that's a risk we will take."
Anyone else feel like we need the moon for life? We have evolved along side with it. Taking out the moon is like taking out the sun. Maybe not as obvious but the moon is there for a reason.
I'm pretty sure we literally need it for the tides and if it was messed up in any way it could cause massive flooding or droughts.

Thank you, info man
What if we sent one bomb in front of a wave of net-shaped formation of bombs that cover a larger area of space with each wave? The one in front does the initial damage and the wave of bomb nets detonate sequentially to take care of the smaller chunks (just the ones headed in Earth's direction).

“ What if you miss?”
“I won’t”
I'm pretty sure that an asteroid would be far enough away from earth, and the explosion would definitely not cause all of the parts of the asteroid to enter the atmosphere.
if its on a crash course with earth blowing it up wont stop it coming for us no matter the distance
Any force in space would alter its course substantially.
Great video.
A lot of this seems to assume the nuke will be detonated near Earth. Much more likely is it will be detonated much further from Earth and not used to destroy the incoming problem but to deflect it so it will miss the planet altogether. The blast may or may not be able to be seen from Earth, depending on nuke size and distance. There will be some effects to the planet, but with distance, comes fewer effects. In all likelihood, using a nuke to deflect an incoming threat would only be used if the incoming threat is far enough away to allow us to form a plan, get everything together, build the nuke, and send it up all before it gets too close. As it sits right now, unless the US government has some secrets they're sitting on, we would be doomed if a large enough rock was heading our way. We lack the technology to deal with such a thing unless we happen to spot it a long way out, which currently is unlikely due to lack of funding and equipment. Instead of pumping billions into a force dedicated to killing other humans, it might be a better idea to try to get along and pump that money into defending ourselves from the dangers of space and getting us off this rock and onto another. The more giant rocks we can become self-sufficient on, the less likely our species is to go extinct. Right now, we are one big space rock away from vanishing from existence.

To be so involved as to answer your fanbase... Honestly. If I could give subscriptions.... I would give 7 billion.
If an asteroid “shattered” the moon, wouldn’t that offset the oceans and lakes on earth devastatingly anyway? meaning lots of tnunamis and hurricanes.
If the moon was shattered the least of your worries would be tsunamis and hurricanes. Meteorites the size of a country would be hitting all over the planet.
Ask Eggman and Piccalo, they'll know.
If the moon broke apart but all of the chunks stayed clustered together due to their collective gravity, then there probably wouldn't be much effect on the tides. If it was shattered hard enough that the pieces dispersed, then yeah we'd be in trouble.
No more total eclipse then

Answer is simple

This is a funny comment (: I like it
not really /: if a small metetorite was hurling towards earth (which is the more likely answer) the nuke would destroy it but still they'd have to have some kind of missile base underwater so it doesnt destroy a city
What if a person lived on mars how would they do so?
I love the voice over
I agree the last 2 options are more interesting and I feel more logical.
