The story of 50 megatons nuclear bomb



(Picture 1)


Kimmo Huosionmaa

In 1961 The Soviet Union exploded the most powerful nuclear weapon ever. Its code name was “Tsar” (RDS 220) and the power of that weapon was 50-60 megaton. The explosion happened at Novaja-Zemlja and the power of that detonation was the size of all explosives what was used in the Second World war multiplied by ten. The unit was massive FFF-(Fission Fusion-Fission) bomb, what structure was like the onion, with layers of lithium and natural uranium. Nowadays the scientists think that the reason to build and detonate this monstrous weapon was that the Soviet Air Force didn’t expect that their bombers and missiles were getting close enough to their targets, and that’s why they build the most powerful nuclear detonator ever built. In that time nuclear weapons were more powerful than today because the guidance systems of missiles and bombers were not enough advanced.


That was the reason, why those weapons needed to be very powerful. Also, detonation systems were not allowed to synchronize the group explosions, where multiple warheads could detonate at the precisely same time. The 50 megaton nuclear explosive would seem like dramatic, but the problem of those very powerful weapons is, that they would destroy all Europe by the single shot. In this scenario, both side troops would also be destroyed, if that kind of monstrous weapon would be detonated. The problems with building the nuclear weapons are that their destructive area must be known very good, that they would have any tactical use.


Then we are talking about the weapons, what have the size of “Tsar-bomb” there is very small change, that there would create the black hole in the atmosphere. In this scenario in the bomb would leave the symmetrical dust bite, and then the explosives would press enough energy to the small bite, that it would turn to singularity or black hole. “Tsar-bomb” is the base of “Status-6” nuclear torpedo. This weapon would create the huge tsunami if it would be detonated at sea, and both beaches would cause very much damages. If the Tsar-bomb would detonate at Helsinki, the Saint Petersburg would destroy at the same time. But when we are talking about the development of nuclear weapons, there is one thing what the developer must know. It is the purpose of developing that weapon.


There are two types of nuclear warheads. Another is very powerful strategic weapons, what mission is to give threat to other nations. The other type of weapons is smaller tactical devices, what are meant to destroy enemy troops. In that mission, the user of the nuclear weapon must know the destruction radius exactly. If this radius is not well known, the nuclear weapon would cause the destruction of both sides of the troops. Radioactive fallout makes the area dangerous for people, and the massive cleaning operations must be done. The super powerful weapons are so-called mutual associated nukes. Their mission would be last change. if the war has begun.

Use virtual "perpetual motion machines" and seawater as energy sources.

   Use virtual "perpetual motion machines"  and seawater as energy sources.  The Archimedean screw can offer almost endless energy sources.  "Robert Fludd's 1618 "water screw" perpetual motion machine from a 1660 wood engraving. It is widely credited as the first attempt to describe such a device." (Wikipedia/Perpetual motion) The term "virtual perpetual motion machine" means a machine. That pulls water to the upper tank using a capillary tube. Then that water will fall through the generator or turbine wheel. The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a "perpetual motion machine", that is impossible because of laws of thermodynamics.  The machine uses differences in pressure levels. But it looks like a " real perpetual motion machine", which is impossible because of the laws of thermodynamics.  The real perpetual motion machines don't use outside energy. And that's why they are not possible....

Will humans survive the sun's red giant stage?

"As the Sun matures into a Red Giant, the oceans will boil and Earth will become uninhabitable." (The Conversation, The sun won’t die for 5 billion years, so why do humans have only 1 billion years left on Earth?) Sooner or later, all stars use their hydrogen. And then they turn into red giants. Sun is a yellow G spectral class star that turns into a white dwarf. But before that, the sun will turn larger.  The sun turns red and that means. It starts to send more infrared radiation. This thing will turn Earth into a hellish temperature that vaporizes water from Earth.  It's possible. That Earth will also vaporize with Venus and Mercury. Some scientists say that we have only 1 billion years to move farther in the solar system. The habitable zone will go to the distance of Jupiter and Saturn, and maybe humans find a safe place in those distant moons.  It's possible that before Sun will grow too large humans make large groups of mirror satellites or large shields that sho...

Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.

"Researchers have created a novel metamaterial that can dynamically tune its shape and properties in real-time, offering unprecedented adaptability for applications in robotics and smart materials. This development bridges the gap between current materials and the adaptability seen in nature, paving the way for the future of adaptive technologies. Credit: UNIST" (ScitechDaily, Metamaterial Magic: Scientists Develop New Material That Can Dynamically Tune Its Shape and Mechanical Properties in Real-Time) Metamaterials can change their properties in an electric- or electro-optical field.  An electro-optical activator can also be an IR state, which means. The metamorphosis in the material can thermally activate.  AI is the ultimate tool for metamaterial research. Metamaterials are nanotechnical- or quantum technical tools that can change their properties, like reflection or state from solid to liquid when the electric or optical effect hits that material. The metamaterial can cru...
