Yeah, that's a powerful video. I also forgot that India tested their first nuclear bomb way back in 1974.
Can a nuclear bomb go off in space?
That would be awesome to see!
I forgot we were still letting of nuclear bombs on US soil into the 1990s. I had thought the test ban treaty was in 1980s.

I believe it is against international treaties, which is too bad because having nuclear bombs go of in space is the only way us humans would be able to get to another solar system with our current technology. A nuclear bomb powered space ship could potentially hit 10% the speed of light.
