Chapter 637 - 373: The Man Who Walked Out of the Nuclear Bomb_2
The fireball kept expanding, its diameter rapidly reaching several kilometers, becoming a light point visible to the naked eye even from satellite orbit.
The intense electromagnetic pulse interfered with the satellite’s communication systems, causing a brief distortion and snow on the images.
As the fireball continued to expand, the surrounding ground began to undergo drastic changes. The surface rocks and soil were vaporized by high temperatures, forming a massive mushroom cloud.
The height of the mushroom cloud quickly rose to tens of kilometers, with its top even reaching the stratosphere.
Data recorded by the satellite indicated that the shockwave from the explosion spread outward at a speed exceeding 10 kilometers per second, covering a radius of hundreds of kilometers.
At a ground observation station hundreds of kilometers from the explosion site, pre-arranged scientists witnessed this breathtaking explosion through telescopes.
Initially, they could only see a faint flash on the horizon, but soon the flash rapidly expanded into a dazzling light.
A huge fireball then rose from the horizon, like a new sun, illuminating the entire sky.
A few minutes later, the shockwave finally reached the observation station. The strong tremors caused the instruments inside to shake, and the window glass creaked.
Dust on the ground was stirred up, forming a massive dust cloud. Scientists inside the station quickly donned protective goggles to prevent the intense light from injuring their eyes.
The power of this nuclear bomb is comparable to the historically famous "Tsar Bomb," which was the most powerful nuclear weapon ever tested by humanity, with an explosive yield of about 50 megatons of TNT.
