Exactly!

The first stage is a uranium-based implosion fission reaction used to generate x-rays to trigger the second stage - the fusion of lithium-deuteride. As part of the second-stage, additional uranium is also fissioned to create additional yield. What has not been created yet is a controllable fusion reaction for the purposes of generating usable energy. This has been an elusive goal that may very well take many additional decades to reach.
Well said!😎

Did you ever see "Planet of the Apes"? The apes are smarter than the greens.

Conventional charge -> Fission (Uranium/Plutonium) -> Fusion (Tritium). The warhead is about the size of a small refrigerator.

Most are probably of the 50kt range since any more is literally overkill.

Just one nuke going off in a cornfield in Kansas would probably scare half the population to death and the remainders would be rushing to Walmart for toilet paper and triple-stacked paper face diapers.

What is really worrisome is that a nuke is really easy to make.

Tactical nukes might be that low in yield but strategic US nukes on Minutemen and D-5 missiles are much larger. The largest I believe is about 450 kilotons. Our largest warhead is over 1 megaton but is a gravity bomb, IIRC.

I don't understand why people refuse to understand that radiation poisoning will doom the planet. Will some survive, sure, lucky them

you are 100% correct yet this is the monster haunting the planet since 1945

Thermonuclear Weapons create a nearly instantaneous fusion reaction resulting in a fusion reactive explosion. Fission reactions are nuclear. Thermonuclear reactions are fusion.

Are you Military/CIA/Following ITER ? :)

Harnessing the power of the atom - E=MC^2 - cannot be uninvented so MAD is the only way. If you don't make light of the situation you will just cry.

Who ever uses nukes isn't going to waste them on Disney. They are expensive and strategic. The most likely targets are Patrick AFB, McDill AFB the Naval base in Jacksonville and Pensacola as the primary targets. Then if secondary attack occurs perhaps the seaports of Jacksonville proper, Miami, Tampa and of course our capital Tallahassee

Whoever nukes america will want to have Florida as a vacation destination so, luckily, they will only use dirty cobalt or neutron bombs.

Must-have for your nuke tool;kit...For fun, take it up in an airplane and listen to it scream at 40,000 feet:
