  Nuking Every Planet in the Solar System 27.08.2026 25мин

  What would happen if humanity decided to unleash nuclear weapons on every planet in our Solar System? From the scorching surface of Mercury to the icy edges of Neptune, this thought experiment pushes science, physics, and imagination to their limits. In this exploration, we examine how nuclear explosions would behave in diverse environments, such as the crushing atmosphere of Venus, the gas giants without solid surfaces, and the frozen worlds beyond. Would nukes even detonate the same way in space? Could they alter entire planets or barely leave a mark? 00:00: Nuking Every Planet in the Solar System00:58: Mercury03:14: Venus07:40: The Moon09:35: Earth12:24: Mars13:55: Jupiter17:52: Saturn19:01: Uranus19:44: Neptune20:46: Pluto Ever wondered what would actually happen?
