Nuke’em

So I stumbled across this neat blast radius simulator. Now, seeing as I don’t really have any real grasp of how big Manhattan is, I found Oslo around (10.76, 59.92) instead. Very interesting. Since it’s Google Maps-powered, I found my apartment at (10.76021, 59.93917). Quite… interesting to simulate the collateral damage in the event that somebody nukes me. Some interesting numbers: 15 kT (Hiroshima), 21 kT (Nagasaki), 50 MT (Tsar Bomba).
