Yes

and ash

and molten rock

Looking at this long term

yeah

assuming a bunch of them erupted

How bad would it be?

let's say 20%

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

what's their travel distance?

GG @Jeebus, you just advanced to level 6!

It'd be ugly

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

Sure, in the usa, it kinda makes sense

But where are the most volcanoes anyhow?

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

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

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

Some of them, yes

fuck, the usa has 3 of them lol

get cucked amerifats

joking ofc

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

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

Is anyone even going to make such measurements?

When you think about it objectively and detailed?

Eh, they've made measurements of them erupting again

but not factoring a nuke hitting one

no i mean fine tune the nuclear strike

Eh..

Chinese spies be measuring the volcanoes. kek

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

XD

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

it depends on the escalation

How many people get involved

how long the tensions will be rising

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.

But it will probably not happen

I sure as shit hope not
