According to the 2023 UN State of World Population report, the current world population is 8 billion – detonating about 400 atomic bombs would wipe out humanity, and there would be no life on earth for a long time.Russia possesses a total of 5,580 nuclear warheads as of 2024, the largest confirmed stockpile of nuclear warheads in the world. Russia's deployed missiles (those actually ready to be launched) number about 1,710, also the largest confirmed strategically deployed arsenal in the world as of 2024.Even if each missile carries only 4 warheads (instead of 12) then half-load consisting of 12 missiles can do enough damage that would make sure that Russia is destroyed as a country it is at the moment. And using the second half would probably finish it as a populated territory.
How many nukes to destroy the sun : The largest bomb ever detonated was the Tsar Bomba on a piddling 50MT. 1.8E26 of them would be needed. The Tsar Bomba weighed in at 30 tons itself, so our sun killer would have to mass about 5.4E27 tons, or about a million earth's mass in atomic bombs.
When did China get nukes
1964
In 1964 China became the world's fifth nuclear-weapon state, formally recognized under the Nuclear Nonproliferation Treaty (NPT).
Does Israel have nukes : Estimates of Israel's stockpile range between 90 and 400 nuclear warheads, and the country is believed to possess the ability to deliver them in several methods, including by aircraft, as submarine-launched cruise missiles, and via the Jericho series of intermediate to intercontinental range ballistic missiles.
In exchange, France would provide the nuclear reactor as the basis for the Israeli nuclear weapons program. Shimon Peres, sensing the opportunity on the nuclear reactor, accepted. On September 17, 1956, Peres and Bergmann reached a tentative agreement in Paris for the CEA to sell Israel a small research reactor. Ukraine does not possess nuclear weapons . Ukraine had 1,900 Soviet strategic nuclear warheads and between 2,650 and 4,200 Soviet tactical nuclear weapons deployed on its territory at the time of independence in 1991.
What if 100 nukes went off at once
The huge volume of debris injected into the atmosphere would have far more widespread effects. This 'aerosol' of particles would reduce the amount of heat reaching the surface from the Sun, producing a so-called nuclear winter with huge environmental impact.During the period of peak energy output, a 1-megaton (Mt) nuclear weapon can produce temperatures of about 100 million degrees Celsius at its center, about four to five times that which occurs at the center of the Sun.The Soviet Union detonated its first atomic bomb, known in the West as Joe-1, on Aug. 29, 1949, at Semipalatinsk Test Site, in Kazakhstan. It is widely believed that the plutonium for Israel's nuclear weapons program was produced by a reactor built with French assistance. The IRR-2 research reactor at the Negev Nuclear Research Center is commonly referred to by the city that hosts it, Dimona.
Has an H bomb ever been used : A hydrogen bomb has never been used in battle by any country, but experts say it has the power to wipe out entire cities and kill significantly more people than the already powerful atomic bomb, which the U.S. dropped in Japan during World War II, killing tens of thousands of people.
Does Palestine have nukes : In accordance with Article 2 of the TPNW, Palestine submitted a declaration to the UN secretary-general on 21 February 2021 confirming that it does not own, possess, or control nuclear weapons, has never done so, and does not host any other state's nuclear weapons on its territory.
Who has the most nukes
Russia has the most confirmed nuclear weapons, with over 5,500 nuclear warheads. The United States follows behind with 5,044 nuclear weapons, hosted in the US and 5 other nations: Turkey, Italy, Belgium, Germany and the Netherlands. However, models from the past decade consider total extinction very unlikely, and suggest parts of the world would remain habitable. Technically the risk may not be zero, as the climatic effects of nuclear war are uncertain and could theoretically be larger, but also smaller, than current models suggest.The key radioactive atom in the plutonium pit has a half life of 24,000 years, which is the amount of time it would take roughly half of the radioactive atoms present to decay. That would suggest the weapons should be viable for years to come.
Am I safe from a nuke : Most people within a few hundred metres of a nuclear detonation are not likely to survive, especially if unprepared. Be inside before the fallout arrives. After a detonation, you will have 10 minutes or more to find an adequate shelter before fallout arrives.
