    It looks much larger than the Chicxulub crater (72 tera tonnes of TNT), this must be a exatonne explosion!

      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.

      So they’re really trying to fix global warming!

      I was gonna say. With a crater that large, we all lose.

      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.

      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” to take the crown.

        Well they didn’t get any Western students protesting the genocide there, so it doesn’t surprise me.

        The haters will say an old map was used to edit this but realistically a lot can happen in 10 years.

    So would this lower sea levels?

    source
    • grue@lemmy.world ⁨11⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

      No, because (a) that’s way, way bigger than any single bomb would make (the largest nuclear crater ever made was “only” about 390m across), and (b) actual nuclear weapon attacks would be detonated as air-bursts and therefore wouldn’t make craters at all to begin with.

      The afore-mentioned crater was the result of an underground test, BTW. The largest bomb ever detonated, the Tsar Bomba, left no crater because it was an air-burst at 4,000m altitude.
