when they erupt?

2019-09-01 05:47:26 UTC  

Yes

2019-09-01 05:47:28 UTC  

and ash

2019-09-01 05:47:32 UTC  

and molten rock

2019-09-01 05:47:35 UTC  

Looking at this long term

2019-09-01 05:47:38 UTC  

yeah

2019-09-01 05:47:44 UTC  

assuming a bunch of them erupted

2019-09-01 05:47:53 UTC  

How bad would it be?

2019-09-01 05:48:02 UTC  

let's say 20%

2019-09-01 05:48:32 UTC  

Well, all you need to do with a big enough nuke would be to hit one against Yellowstone and you got a big chunk of the USA covered in ash, unless the nuke blast would incenerate some of the ashes

2019-09-01 05:48:36 UTC  

what's their travel distance?

2019-09-01 05:48:36 UTC  

GG @Jeebus, you just advanced to level 6!

2019-09-01 05:48:38 UTC  

It'd be ugly

2019-09-01 05:49:04 UTC  

But then there's the question of expending nukes on volcanoes

2019-09-01 05:49:29 UTC  

Sure, in the usa, it kinda makes sense

2019-09-01 05:49:40 UTC  

But where are the most volcanoes anyhow?

2019-09-01 05:49:53 UTC  

It just occurred to me about factoring them in because the US gov is skiddish about even drilling near it for such a geothermal plant being able to make it fire, so I figured I'd factor them into the possible scenario

2019-09-01 05:50:24 UTC  

It would be nice to have less athesmatics(sp?) around

2019-09-01 05:50:28 UTC  

and assuming they were hit. Can the ash from the usa travel to south america or even europe?

2019-09-01 05:50:37 UTC  

Some of them, yes

2019-09-01 05:50:53 UTC  

fuck, the usa has 3 of them lol

2019-09-01 05:50:58 UTC  

get cucked amerifats

2019-09-01 05:51:03 UTC  

joking ofc

2019-09-01 05:51:23 UTC  

It heavily depends if the blasts incenerated some of the ashes completely or not

2019-09-01 05:51:35 UTC  

Such a scenario is pretty fucking terrifying, isn't it?

2019-09-01 05:51:44 UTC  

Is anyone even going to make such measurements?

2019-09-01 05:51:50 UTC  

When you think about it objectively and detailed?

2019-09-01 05:52:01 UTC  

Eh, they've made measurements of them erupting again

2019-09-01 05:52:09 UTC  

but not factoring a nuke hitting one

2019-09-01 05:52:12 UTC  

no i mean fine tune the nuclear strike

2019-09-01 05:52:18 UTC  

Eh..

2019-09-01 05:52:51 UTC  

Chinese spies be measuring the volcanoes. kek

2019-09-01 05:52:56 UTC  

I mean they have those computer controls in all them silos and they're able to be signaled wirelessly from a safe distance for a reason

2019-09-01 05:52:57 UTC  

XD

2019-09-01 05:53:56 UTC  

I think it would be pretty unlikely for everyone to nuke eachother like that

2019-09-01 05:54:21 UTC  

it depends on the escalation

2019-09-01 05:54:38 UTC  

How many people get involved

2019-09-01 05:54:44 UTC  

how long the tensions will be rising

2019-09-01 05:54:51 UTC  

There's just so much to factor in if this were to be considered, then the counterbalances in such scenarios to be considered, the point is a big chunk of the species would be knocked out, but with enough sufficiency, it could survive as a species, but the governments and corporate bodies are either gonna be dead, or so badly hurt they'll likely never be able to recover, and like Jeebus JUST said, escalation.

2019-09-01 05:55:26 UTC  

But it will probably not happen
