What would happen if we launched all the nukes at the sun at once?

Answer 1

i think they would melt and dissipate before reaching the sun.

Answer 2

We would:

a. run out of nukes.

b. get nuked, because none of them are powerful enough to reach escape velocity and get away from Earth. They'd all come crashing back down.

If they could actually get to the sun, the result would be a. They would have no effect whatsoever. Our nukes are tiny, minuscule compared to celestial bodies, they wouldn't even dent an asteroid on collision course for Earth (I'm sorry to say, for all you guys out there confident we can repel such a disaster). To the sun they are less than ants. They wouldn't even get there in one piece, they'd melt and never go nuclear, maybe the melted masses will even get blown away bit-by-bit by the solar wind. It is a pointless exercise, but a spectacular (and expensive) option for nuclear disarmament.

Answer 3

in the journey that they did nuke us. (I doubt they may even get it the following) yet in the journey that they can lets comprehend before hand and all of us should not be useless they do no longer have that many nuke's. the in ordinary words way there nuke's might want to kill many peaple might want to be in the journey that they use an atomic bomb like we utilized in hiroshima contained in the 1940's and that's going to take a lengthy time period for peaple to commence gettiing ill from it. So in the journey that they did nuke us we were given all of NATO and Thier best pal's china and russia aren't from now on gonna again them up. the in ordinary words u . s . that would want to help them is Iran which fairly does no longer be any help hostile to the international. So we wont wipe them off the earth because of South korea,China and russia are next to north korea so one could have many civilian casualtie's. So contained in the top if we've conflict south korea and north korea will be unified. each and every of the north korean's will be reunited with a number of thier love one's that were given separated in the course of the korean conflict. Or that escaped.

Answer 4

It would simply be a waste of precious earth resources.

1.2 x 10^34 Joules is the annual energy output of the sun.
4 x 10^15 Joules is a megaton of TNT

A 100-megaton hydrogen bomb releases the same amount of energy the sun does in 10^-25 seconds.

To say the result wouldn't be noticeable is an understatement.

Answer 5

If they could actually reach it? Nothing. The Sun is one giant Nuclear reaction. Releasing 100 million times more energy every minute than all the nukes on earth combined.

Answer 6

Almost nothing. As they near the sun, the intense heat will melt them and even if they become critical and explode, the energy and the radiation get dissipated in space. So, as far as earth is concerned, not much damage.

If they don't explode and if the journey to the sun continues, the metal vaporises.

Answer 7

We wouldn't notice much of anything. All of nukes together would make a 100,000 megaton blast, but it wouldn't even be a blip on the sun's surface, it's so big.

Answer 8

Well, the ICBMs that everyone's made don't have enough thrust to reach orbit, so they would all fall back down into our atmosphere, and land some place. The re-entry vehicles (warheads) are designed to fall through the atmosphere and not burn up from friction.

There would be craters where they landed, from the speed of impact, not from detonation.

Answer 9

The sun would not even notice.

Answer 10

they would all burn up before they even got anywhere near the sun..dumb question
