That would be a surprisingly realistic bump in the middle where molten granite spiked upwards, but I don’t think nukes have quite that much power. Don’t get me wrong, they could end life on earth, but they won’t have the same or more localized impact than the meteor did.
Anyone else glad that the USA has been kicked off the planet?
Is this boomer shit really making the rounds again? This is so 2003.
ts looks like the kerbin map from KSP 🥀
The nostalgia for the Kerbin map is going be crazy if KSA takes off and fills the void for the next decade or so.
Oh wow, didn’t realize someone picked up the torch after ksp2 died. Haven’t touched a rocket in a few years but I’m down for some unplanned rapid dissasemblies in my future.
Wouldn’t a nuke that big crack the crust?
maybe, but it seems it would lower the sea level

I love how the answer to the Middle East problem is a nuke, and not just, I don’t know, leaving us alone for a change.
No, sorry, letting arabs live is antisemitic. And that’s a bad thing to be. I don’t make the rules; i just uncritically accept anc enforce them upon those who cannot defend themselves and nobody else.
Nobody tell Israel that Arabs are semites too.
Nowhere does it say who nuked them. Maybe it was themselves.
Then leave them alone to nuke themselves.
Again, nowhere in the image is it saying they were helped to nuke themselves.
Not allowing the zionazis to destroy all life on earth is antisemitic.
Whoever drew this went to great lengths to keep Israel on the map
Without it the value of the Suez Canal plummets. Please, think of the shareholders.
Which is illogical if it is supposed to be an epicentre of explosions. However, if it was Israel nuking everyone around… I mean, one ongoing genocide may not be enough for them.
Well not rewarding them fir starting a world war would be antisemitic.
Deeply. They were only defending themselves by murdering these toddlers… I mean, potential terrorists.
The toddlers were terrifying the poor IDF soldiers, hence they were terrorists.
More importantly, toddlers grow up into Palestinian adults. IDF obviously cannot allow THAT.
pptential
You fucking bigot! Those terrorists were slandering the entire protocols of the elders of zion larp group by making it look like their
terroristdefensive wing was murdering toddlers!How is that not terrorism!?
They had to die for that!
Arma calling it again
Nice to see Ukraine won
And they got crimea back!
Interesting that South Sudan decided to forfeit its independence.
The haters will say an old map was used to edit this but realistically a lot can happen in 10 years.
If we want to be realistic, then if there was a nuclear explosion that big on planet Earth all the nations around it would be nuclear wastelands from the shockwave and fallout and the rest of the planet would probably be covered in ice from the nuclear winter.
Most nation states on that side of the planet would be gone and the ones on the other side of the planet would at the very least be collapsing from the fall in agricultural production and subsequent wars of desperation.
Years? That’s sounds slow by today’s standards.
Well they didn’t get any Western students protesting the genocide there, so it doesn’t surprise me.
Is the poor little Zionist upset at people taking issue with genocide?
That’s a nipple in the middle.
That’s the holy land
That’s the holy sea.
Another war shall be fought for it!
And thus it happened. There were peace for a hundred years.
3 years. Balkans.
It looks much larger than the Chicxulub crater (~200km diameter 72 tera tonnes of TNT), this must be a exatonne explosion, I measured the crater diameter to about 3500km!
It would take decades or centuries before the sky would clear after such an explosion, most likely resulting in a mass extinction event.
Trump solves global warming with nuclear weapons. Get his Nobel prize ready.
That’s actually a brilliant idea. Once you eradicate most of the humanity, the rest will sort itself out.
Considering that we’re in the midst of the Anthropocene mass extinction event already, I’d say it would be a certainty. The only question would be how bad it would get. Given how much larger that crater would be than Chicxulub, I’m guessing it would exceed the “Great Dying” (Permian-Triassic extinction event) to take the crown.
Edit: The Wilkes Land Crater in Antarctica, which may be associated with the Great Dying, was “only” a little over 2.5 times larger in diameter than Chicxulub and thus still way smaller than the crater depicted. That said, I guess a nuclear crater wouldn’t be associated with a flood basalt “exit wound” at the antipode the way an impact crater might be, so maybe it wouldn’t be comparable.
So they’re really trying to fix global warming!
Combination sea level rice abd lots of much smaller nuclear explosions.
I was gonna say. With a crater that large, we all lose.
I call that winning.
it would also shatter tectonic plates, create rifts and reverse the directions some plates were moving, the asteroid impact you mention resulted in the Indian subcontinent (I’m simplifying a lot of things right now)
Well, now you’ve piqued my curiosity. Got a link?
The Wikipedia article I’m reading right now says that the Indian plate split from Gondwana 100 MY ago (33 MY before the Chicxulub impact), so that’s not the connection. Further down the page, it says that the plate movement might have sped up as it passed over the mantle plume from the impact that created the Deccan Traps (my interpretation, BTW; the science isn’t actually as settled as I’m making it out to be), but it seems to me that that wouldn’t change the “result” of the plate colliding with Asia and creating the Indian Subcontinent, only the timing of the collision.

Everything I said previously was what I could remember, give this a read yourself, it’s not long and it is really interesting
Kazakhstan, after finally securing access to the oceans: Just according to keikaku.
(keikaku means plan)
Imagine how much potassium they could export with direct access to the GZ Ocean?
Edit: And Russia would have warm water ports! Ukraine War averted!
Doing this creates world peace change my mind lol
Peace of the grave.
See my last paragraph here. TL;DR: it might indeed do that, but only in the vacuous truth sense that no human societies would be left to make war.
