Every single nuke in the world pointed at the same spot could not achieve anything even close to this.

This would require an asteroid/comet impact .. an order of magnitude, or two, or three, more destructive than the chicxulub impact that wiped out the dinosaurs.

The entire chicxulub impact crater is about the size of 'Mound Island'.

An impact this huge would probably shatter the crust of much of, if not the entire planet, and turn the entire atmosphere into fire.

No, but they could create a thin glass crust over the whole area that would accomplish much the same effect.

[–] sus@programming.dev 32 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

this would actually be achieved by a team of 20 thousand oompa loompas with small shovels and 500 million tons of cocaine

[–] pinheadednightmare@lemmy.world 10 points 2 days ago

I like how you think

[–] Lv_InSaNe_vL@lemmy.world 2 points 1 day ago

That circle is roughly about 2000 miles across (according to rough measurements in Google maps), which is only about 2x the size of the Gulf of Mexico.

But yeah, this would be a cataclysmic event.

[–] Lennnny@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago

One can hope

[–] captain_aggravated@sh.itjust.works 5 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't think there's anything that could make a crater like that on Earth. Like, an impact big enough to leave a crater that big would render the entire crust splashy enough to fill it back in.

crazy how the bomb ignored the island in the middle, didn't know we had donut nukes

You can't convince me that isn't a nipple snuck in by the image creator.

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.

[–] outhouseperilous@lemmy.dbzer0.com 88 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (1 children)

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.

[–] SkyezOpen@lemmy.world 19 points 2 days ago (2 children)

Nobody tell Israel that Arabs are semites too.

What an antisemitic thing to say!

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

Without it the value of the Suez Canal plummets. Please, think of the shareholders.

[–] FelixCress@lemmy.world 14 points 2 days ago (5 children)

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.

Kazakhstan, after finally securing access to the oceans: Just according to keikaku.

[–] ms_lane@lemmy.world 24 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (3 children)

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!

Not allowing the zionazis to destroy all life on earth is antisemitic.

Whatever made that crater was an ELE. Bigger than Chicxulub.

We have plenty of great filters to navigate:

We end war, or we die.

We restore the atmosphere and rebuild global ecology, or we die.

We end stratified society and power disparity, or we die.

Where are all the aliens? Fermi asked. The first question is, how do we navigate our way to becoming a space-faring, world colonizing species, ourselves? It's turning out to be pretty difficult for the common hominid.

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.

[–] grue@lemmy.world 25 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

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.

The Atomic Sea

or, if a Fallout fan, “The Glowing Sea”

The New Gulf of America

[–] juliebean@lemmy.zip 6 points 2 days ago

the idea that national borders would still exist, let alone be so unchanged, after such a world changing impact, is laughable.

[–] Etterra@discuss.online 6 points 2 days ago

To be fair, technically nobody can fight over their bullshit if neither they nor their bullshit exist.
