  • What would happen if a nuclear war were to be sparked between Russia and the United States today? Who would survive?
    In our most scientifically realistic simulation to date, we show what a nuclear war between Russia and the United States might look like today. It is based on detailed modeling of nuclear targets, missile trajectories, and the effects of blasts, EMPs, and smoke on the climate and food resources.
    We have just announced the results of our latest grant program focused on the humanitarian impacts of nuclear war - see the list of projects here: futureoflife.org/grant-progra...

      I'll admit...Covid really screwed me up a bit! As lockdowns were easing, tensions that were built up over many months, culminated in my last break-up. But my career was still going strong, as I had just started what I thought would be an exciting job, as a senior software engineer for a popular online charity organisation.
      Anyway, news then hit me that Russia invaded Ukraine and films I had watched as a kid, about the aftermath of a Nuclear War, such as The Day After and Threads, started to invade my dreams....
      I quickly lost interest in my new job... Pretty much lost interest in a LOT of things, particularly since I was single again, and I guess something finally snapped! Covid... America and Russia engaged in a proxy war... Interest rates, inflation and our failing global economy... Our failing politics and political corruption... This insane trans agenda... Oh and, we've just been informed, here in the UK, that last month was the hottest June on record... So yeah, global warming... Just to name a small handful of current concerns!
      But the one that really freaks me out is this ongoing conflict. So much so, that I quit my job and have been living of my savings for the past year now... Playing video games, getting high... And just trying to make sense of this insane world that we're living in!
      Oh I will get back on that horse eventually! I worked too damn hard to give up now! So I'm treating this as a much needed career break! But I do wonder, what exactly are we even fighting for these days? Because the way I see it, our future is very much in jeopardy... For a whole plethora of reasons!
      Anyway... Good Luck to Us ALL!

      The structures of Governments are like those of corporations. It offers services to customers (aka. people), in exchange for money (aka. taxes). So, the employees of the corrupt corporation called government don't work for people, only for themselves in the pursue of bigger and bigger profit at the expense of people well-being. They don't serve people, they see people as competitors/sources of income. We the people, are sovereign beings, if a corporation wants to sell us war, we have the right to refuse it. Don't take any injection governments/media promote, don't go to fight in a war for these corrupts governments corporation, nor go and defend them. People are manipulated to hate and kill each other.

      Governments are just a corporation in which people are shareholders, and unfortunately it is a deeply corrupt corporation that does not serve the people but serves itself. Governments are not the home of the people, is nothing to defend there !!! But they are, in fact, the enemy of the people, they are the ones who consider themselves above anything and all, above the people, they are the masters of slaves, that is, those who control people by various means. When people comprehend this, they will no longer give their power into the hands of others, who are naturally kind of psychopathic, that is, hungry for control / power!

    I'm 75. Seen about every doc and read every print article about nuclear war, since the 60's. I'm also a veteran of the "duck and cover" scenario in school. We were freaking terrified. Then there was watching our parents being scared... watching Khrushchev go nuts at the UN. We were in Germany at that time and were getting prepped to evacuate back to the USA. My sister and I were a complete mess. We weren't even excited about missing school.
    And all that stress, to this day, has an impact on me emotionally.

They extrapolated results from research of climatic effects of dust storms on Mars, observed in the 1970s, along with results from their scientific collegues, who studied effects of massive volcanic eruptions and large asteroid impacts in Earth's history...I remember reading about these results, some of which were included in the last chapter of his famous book "Cosmos", titled "Who Speaks For Earth?". I was just a teenager back then, but I still remember how absolutely terrified I was after reading that chapter. He described the total destruction of human civilization as a likely outcome of total nuclear war, but he concluded, somewhat to my surprise, that probably the worst thing would be the consciousness that we could have prevented it, but somehow we failed to do so. The consciousness about a civilization destroyed for no apparent reason. Nuclear war is something that must NEVER happen, if we ever want to have future on this planet, not only for us, but also for our children...

      Sagan was far more than a sci-fi writer - he was a scientist, philosopher, mathematician, historian, and author among many other things. His wisdom and intellect would be much appreciated right now in our modern world of climate change and war, alas he passed away much too soon. The original Cosmos is a fantastic show that is still relevant today.

      ​​@@grghkllb3875 couldn't agree more, but somehow I feel the need to explain myself-I didn't say that he was sci-fi writer, but SCIENCE writer.What I wanted to say is that he was one of the most influential popularizers and advocates of science (in a way, he was predecessor of Neil deGrasse Tyson and many others) and, of course, as you stated, much,much more than that-scientist, astronomer, philosopher, pioneer in the field of astrobiology, writer, communicator of science...If I remember correctly, he only wrote one sci-fi novel, "Contact", which may be considered to be fictional extrapolation of his previous work in the field of search for the extraterrestrial intelligence (SETI). However, I totally agree with you-his wisdom is greatly missed these days...I often read his most popular books, not only "Cosmos", but also "Pale Blue Dot", "Demon-Haunted World", "Shadows Of Forgotten Ancestors"(which he co-wrote with Ann Druyan-by the way, he dedicated "Cosmos" to her)...

      Who are these so-called "Ordinary people"?
      Noah had three sons, namely: Shem, Ham, and Japheth.
      Almost right after the Flood, they all abandoned the Creator of all things, (who had just saved them from destruction), to go whoring after "other gods".
      So God told Noah, in a dream, to divide by lot, the entire post-Flood world into three very specifically defined Territories; one Land for each of the Sons and their progeny. Then, Noah was to tell them to stay out of eachother's Territories "lest there be strife".............................. and right from Day-One, there was strife as Canaan, a Hamite, usurped for himself, the best Land on all the Earth, which rightly had fallen to his Uncle Shem.
      And so, almost all of them, as they abandoned YHWH, got put on His "ignore list" .
      And so almost right away, there were no ordinary people.
      The ordinary state of about 75% of mankind, in this World, is to be;
      Pagan/Heathen/Atheist/or Agnostic.
      But it's actually worse. Of the 2.2 billion who claim to be Christian, 1.2 billion of them claim to be Roman Catholic, which, at it's roots, is fully Paganized.
      But it's actually even worse; most of the 1 billion, non RC Christians, are actually daughter-churches to the RC church, the main difference being their system of church governance.
      So as you can see; what you call "ordinary", is actually the exception.
      In the World today, Scripturally speaking, there are two kinds of living/speaking creatures, namely;
      1) the seed of Adam, and
      2) the seed of satan
      Of the first kind, there are three subdivisions. namely;
      1) the Wheat, destined to Everlasting Life
      2) the Tares, destined to the Lake of Fire
      3) those not yet "drawn" by AlmightyGod, which could go either way.
      Of the Second kind, there are two subdivisions, namely;
      1) the visible kind; which are;
      a) humans possessed by devils; and/or
      b) the so-called aliens, which are the rebel-angels kicked-out-of-heaven.
      2) the invisible kind; which include but are not limited to;
      c) satan himself, and
      d) his army, the spirits/devils, and
      e) possibly, a few so-called "demons"
      All of these are destined to destruction.
      So which bunch, are, "ordinary"?

      All nations are basically run by people who are not chosen by its own people.
      Even American presidents aren't at all controlling what people think they are.
      At the end of the day, you simp for the system, or get destroyed.
      Trump towed the line in some ways, and fights in others, mostly against globalism.

    The one thing this video doesnt cover, is the difference between Air Burst and Surface Burst Warheads. Airburst, there is NO Fallout. Only SURFACE Burst Warheads cause Fallout. The reason being, fallout is surface materials flung into the air, which is irradiated- and then falls back to earth like sand or dust. If the explosion is miles above the ground, like in an Airburst- there will be no Surface Materials to Irradiate, hence, no Fallout. This of course ignores the fact that the explosions would cause many more problems as side effects, like wild fires, power outages, chemical spills, flooding, and yes- Nuclear power plant meltdowns as well. So Radiation is an issue even long after the bombs have passed.
