What would happen if we were to detonate a very very powerful nuclear weapon on the moon? Would the explosion knock its orbit towards earth, causing tidal waves and misery? Could the moon be destroyed, showering the earth in a rain of meteoric death?

hi
Keep up the good content!
Hi
Oh
good question
" Nuclear explosions might be big but space is bigger." Puts things in perspective I guess
Eh human stupidity is larger
Yes. I stole that from albert einstein
“Space is big. You just won’t believe how vastly, hugely, mind-bogglingly big it is. I mean, you may think it’s a long way down the road to the chemist’s, but that’s just peanuts to space.”
- Douglas Adams
The existential horror that that brings: all the destructive capabilities of humankind are less than a whisper when compared to the infinite universe, is basically why I watch this channel.
Im ur fan Integza

@@marcelacavalheiro2412 yep
DO IT NOW
Humans: *How about I do...Anywayyyy*
I think the most impressive part is that it would only leave a crater of 1km in diameter. There are so many bigger craters caused by asteroids and its just humbling to know how little we as humans are in the universe
It kind of had the opposite effect on me, I thought it'd just kick up a little dust and only affect a very tiny part of the moon, since I'm used to thinking of humans being so small to the point of having no power to affect anything beyond a human scale, but seeing all that would happen was actually a reminder of how scary nuclear weapons really are.
7:31
Keep in mind this bomb is twice the size of anything humans will (hopefully) ever detonate.
@@trainpuns2so its actually the exact size humans were about to explode before they decided to half it for some reason i seem to have forgot
@@288z-vr6lu The Soviet Union halved the potential strength of the Tsar Bomba because the larger 100MT yield would have created additional fallout that could contaminate their own land, would have created so much fallout that it would threaten NATO countries which would possibly trigger a military conflict, and would definitely have killed the crew of the plane that dropped it.
They wanted to rattle a saber and show off, not start a war.

“Pathetic.”
@@Staramitas9027 more like adorable.
There's a reason one of the most feasible and damaging weapons humanity will have once space exploration becomes a thing is to just drop large rods of heavily metal from orbit. The kinetic energy of just dropping something suitably heavy from orbit dwarfs every nuke we currently have or likely will have by now.
This channel is undoubtedly my new favorite. Cannot imagine the amount of work behind this production.

if only all science teachers have a talented animation staff of 20 working on relevant videos for every lesson - oh wait, there's people doing it on youtube for free? HMM.
@@alveolate My science teacher once caught our school on fire demonstrating an experiment of all the stored energy in sugar.
Half a soup can of sugar, 2 drops of sulfuric acid, and a scoop of a catalyst he wouldn't name, created a 5 minute long 10-foot high rocket engine. All because he didn't want to do the experiment outside and risk distracting other classes.
The following day he avoided burning the ceiling but a hall monitor saw the fire and pulled the alarm in panic.
The animation is god tier but the music and sound effects are criminally underrated. Massive appreciation to all the team effort.

Part of the Apollo Lunar Surface Experiments Package (12-17) and the Early Apollo Scientific Experiments Package (11) included 3 geophones and an array of explosive charges set to varying distances and detonated in sequence to study the interior composition and structure of the moon!
NASA also purposefully sent the 3rd stage of the Saturn V, the S-IVB on a collision course to the moon on nearly all lunar missions for similar reasons.

Would be nice if we just don’t use them on earth too
That's what I said the first time reading the title of this video.
Actually I disagreed for a second when he said that. Cuz the moon is going away from us every year by 3.4 centimeeters. It's not that much maybe like after 10.000 years it would make like 500 meters and it will increasingly will go away as it loose our gravity. I know even for 10K years the distance is relatively too short. Yet again I think humanity should consider to stop it from getting away in one point.
