19.3 x 436000 = 8414800 grams

2018-06-10 19:56:02 UTC  

convert that to pounds and you get 18551.45844 pounds

2018-06-10 19:56:11 UTC  

it costs 10,000 dollars to put 1 pound in space

2018-06-10 19:56:34 UTC  

there was some rounding

2018-06-10 19:56:46 UTC  

so it's probably higher than 185.5 million dollars

2018-06-10 19:57:05 UTC  

HM..

2018-06-10 19:57:27 UTC  

How about firing them into the atmosphere to then drift down?

2018-06-10 19:57:34 UTC  

Wait.

2018-06-10 19:57:41 UTC  

I just made an error

>Trying to kill people because I want to legalize breast milk

2018-06-10 19:57:45 UTC  

YEET

2018-06-10 19:58:03 UTC  

tungsten is 19.3 grams per cubic CENTIMETER
not cubic inch

2018-06-10 19:58:15 UTC  

So what does this change?

2018-06-10 19:58:17 UTC  

so it's actually like 463,786,400 dollars

2018-06-10 19:58:28 UTC  

for 1 pound?

2018-06-10 19:58:30 UTC  

after I did the cubic inch to cubic centimeter conversion

2018-06-10 19:58:31 UTC  

no

2018-06-10 19:58:33 UTC  

Right, we're doing this ICBM style.

2018-06-10 19:58:48 UTC  

this is for a telephone pole sized object, which was the original plan for kinetic bombardment

2018-06-10 19:58:59 UTC  

almost 500 million fucking dollars for one rod

2018-06-10 19:59:01 UTC  

Firing them into the atmosphere to then drift down

2018-06-10 19:59:30 UTC  

Literally gonna use metal rods like ICBMs

2018-06-10 19:59:59 UTC  

that'd be really tough because the missile would have to carry 23 fucking tons of tungsten

2018-06-10 20:00:17 UTC  

Eh

2018-06-10 20:00:31 UTC  

the tsar bomba (largest nuke ever built) weighed 5 tons

2018-06-10 20:00:59 UTC  

the ICBM would collapse on the pad

2018-06-10 20:01:07 UTC  

Hm...

2018-06-10 20:01:22 UTC  

We'll see.

2018-06-10 20:01:30 UTC  

Gotta look into this a bit more..

2018-06-10 20:01:34 UTC  

the tsar bomba had to be delivered by plane, too, because it was TOO HEAVY TO BE PUT ON A MISSILE

2018-06-10 20:01:55 UTC  

Then again we're in the future and NASA has been researching how to lower the cost of putting stuff into orbit so by this time they could of done that.

2018-06-10 20:02:08 UTC  

this plan is a disaster waiting to happen and a huge waste of money

2018-06-10 20:02:45 UTC  

HM..

2018-06-10 20:03:16 UTC  

Fuck. Tried thinking of a pun to take the mick out of Communism but can't think of any way to phrase it...

2018-06-10 20:03:19 UTC  

Shit.

2018-06-10 20:04:00 UTC  

you'd have to make a pretty big rocket to drop the Tsar Bomba

2018-06-10 20:04:18 UTC  

you could give everyone in the ghetto a steady job, drug rehabilitation, and a far better house AND get rid of the ghetto for the 500 million dollars you wasted dropping a rod on it

2018-06-10 20:04:21 UTC  

and it wouldn't be very low profile like most ICBMs are supposed to be

2018-06-10 20:04:28 UTC  

Or.

2018-06-10 20:04:35 UTC  

Kill everyone in the ghettos,

2018-06-10 20:04:49 UTC  

so you're proposing social cleansing
