Early reports of possible nuclear test in North Korea.
Early seismic data shows it as being too deep, but 10 km is often a place holder depth while USGS gets better data.
KJU probably just slipped in the shower or something.

Chinese now reporting 0 Km depth. Probable test.

Building and miniaturizing nukes requires large teams of scientists, engineers, and skilled workers, as well as access to the correct materials (not just fissiles, but the high grade alloys used in processing)
These people need to be educated from a young age, receive enough incentives to make it worth their while (food would probably do it in Best Korea), and have access to necessary facilities/equipment and competent management.
Frankly I'm amazed the Norths programs gone as far as it has.

All they are doing is proving that they are as retarded as the rest of the world. There is no reason it should take as long as it has for them to build technology that already exists in mass quantities and has for several decades.
I understand the whole Juche thing about not needing no man because they are independent women, but that doesn't mean not learning from other people.

if that magnitude is right, then the force imparted to the earth was ~3.4ktons. If this was in a tunnel than the device was sub 5 ktons, if it was a surface blast it would be ~10-20ktons. All this assumes the magnitude was 4.9.

Cavity size has an effect as well. Yield is a hard thing to do from seismographs. Thats why there is still debate about the yield of previous tests.
The WC-135 thats about to take off from Kadena soon will have more info about the device in a few hours.

It isn't really even about resources. I bet a bunch of graduates from MIT could design a better nuclear program with the same resources if they weren't forced to read only Juche approved material.

they've had substantial food shortages starting again around the 2012 floodings. they're still starving over there, not in pyongyang but in the mountainous regions in the northern parts of the country they'll be out scavenging for roots.

>>28443835
They are not empty threats. They do want a nuclear capability, and they are working hard to get it.
In the meantime, they use it as a bargaining chip to elicit concessions from the rest of the planet. They know that the US political atmosphere cultivates a desire for administrations to gain political victories by claiming to reach some sort of agreement with the DPRK regarding nuclear issues.
So the DPRK gets what it wants, (concessions without any good faith commitment to actually stop their program), the US political leaders get what they want (a political foreign policy feather in their cap) and by the time it becomes an issue again the US electorate will have moved on giving the administration the opportunity to score points again with the same cycle.

>>28443988
I'm a noob with nuclear shit, what is the significance in them making hydrogen bomb?
>>28443988
Is there any way to confirm?
North Korea announced they have successfully developed a hydrogen bomb, one megaton in size.
rip in pussy
>>28444094
H-bombs can get a lot bigger.
>>28444094
in theory they can scale them to much larger yields.
>>28444094
>what is the significance in them making hydrogen bomb?
If they fix their delorean they can go back to the 1950s and rule the world.
>>28444094
If they have a hydrogen bomb it represents a major step forward for their capabilities. Hydrogen bombs are a lot more powerful than other nuclear weapons.
>>28444096
Constant Phoenix will have to report in.
If the yield holds, I'm going with a successful test of a boosted fission primary.
It is in line with their claims of it being hydrogen and miniaturized, as well as explaining the lower yield than you might expect with a hydrogen bomb.
>>28444147

>>28443074
>>28443988
>They're saying it's thermonuclear, is it true?
imo no.
They were probably experimenting with Hydrogen in order to make a boosted fission device and are either reporting it as fusion out of error or more likely, for propaganda.
Boosted fission basically means that they put tritium gas inside a a hollow sphere of plutonium, so that when the implosion happens, the tritium will push back and cause more of the plutonium to fissile, generating a bigger boom
>>28444322
Technically were still at war. The only thing stopping us from ending this charade is the guaranteed devastation of worst Korea.
Let the Chinese handle this. Can they?

yeah, they probably scrounged up everything they had for this test. i doubt they would have another device ready for atleast 3 years, probably 5.

Has a Paki nuke been used in anger, lost, or given to stateless actors like the Taliban?
>>28443404
Could someone break down the components of this preschool-style for me?
>>28444894
They'd be literally nuking themselves and the contaminationwould spread to their neighbors, since NK is a relatively small country. Not everyone has enough empty space for atmospheric tests. Pretty much just Russia and USA. Everyone else only used secluded isles.
>>28444887
That's because poo in loo has nukes too, they're a natural balance to Pakistan.

UK nuked Australia for their first few.

Probably have 10 existing devices, give or take. Probably don't have many of the boosted primary that was (possibly) tested tonight.

Way to keep that bar low enough to trip on.
>Lost
Not permanently. They were found. Eventually.
>>28444952
Google it. Then post it to /pol/
Have fun.
I'm finally heading to bed.
Have a good night, /k/. If the threads still up and I have time I'll check in tomorrow.
Good night.

It does make sense though, only nuclear weapons can melt steel beams.

Is that the origin of the duck-billed platypus?
>>28444928

>>28444966
The USA has lost nuclear bombs. I still don't know if they ever found the one they lost off the coast of Savannah Georgia.
>>28444952
NUCLEAR FUSION CAN'T MELT STEEL BEAMS!
>>28444924
lets be honest...if it had been a pakistani nuke test...india would have already bombed them.
Neat fact: look at the timing. It's right on the hour.
(NK time is something:30 ahead of UTC)
We actually discovered a bunch of soviet secret tests a while ago by looking closely at earthquakes that happened exactly on the hour
Humans are funny that way - we sure do love whole numbers

Thank you, Oppy - I feel stupider
>>28444982
Difference is the US is 100% sure no one has that lost nuclear weapon.
Pakistan had no idea on Earth what had happened.
But sure, it's the exact same thing.
>>28445002
it's nice and easy for the record books, as well as searching for the data later on.
>>28444993
The Taliban moved to Pakistan. Where they are not only tolerated, they have sympathizers in the government.
I'm amazed that Pakistan hasn't given the Taliban a nuke yet.

What is the likelihood that there is actually something of value left in Detroit? Gold, gems, weapons, technology... could it actually possibly be worth it to go S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mode and just scavenge shit from the ruins? Isn't much of Detroit totally abandoned?
>>28444970
Nope, aborigines
>>28445036
The Detroit Lions are pretty valuable.
>>28444906
So Oppenheimer, what is the likelihood the Saudis will start pursing the bomb now that tensions between them and Iran are at a big low? afaik they don't have any infrastructure to start on a nuclear program, but they have lots of money, and friends in Pakistan.
>>28444982
The USA has lost numerous nukes, as has Russia. Most lost and never found nukes are buried in mud about 5,000ft deep or more in the Ocean, and will not be recovered due to cost. Also, incredibly unlikely anybody but the Nation that lost it could recover it.
US also nearly nuked itself in the 60's. 2 of 3 failsafes preventing the nuke from detonating failed. One did not, thus the bomb did not detonate.
>>28445036
Might be a bit of copper left in the buildings.
Do you really want to go into detroit to get it though?

>WASHINGTON: Amid mounting tension between Saudi Arabia and Iran over execution of a prominent Shiite cleric, a top US Senator has expressed concern that Riyadh could purchase nuclear weapons from Pakistan thus further destabilise the Middle East.
>"Saudi has good relationships with Pakistan. They could just buy a weapon and again further destabilise the Middle East," Senator Ron Johnson told a television channel in an interview.

How the fuck will they afford a nuke? The kingdom is fucked due to oil prices in the gutter.
>>28445054
Saudi & Iran have closed embassies and shit, tensions are actually pretty high right now.
>>28445061
>unlikely anybody but the Nation that lost it could recover it.
Also the fact that if you have the tech to recover it intact and restore it, you have the tech to just build one yourself.
>>28445089
Take a very small part of their enormous military budget and buy a few.
>>28445089
They have a large cash reserve that hasn't run dry yet.
Do you think this is in response to China slowing in growth and possibly shortening aid to the norks Oppen? If so, Lil Kim just drank the /pol/-aide.

Unless of course they already bought them when they bought the ballistic missiles from China.

That one in Georgia was found last year wasn't is? Some couple was scuba diving and found it. They nearly shit themselves.

Who do you think funded the Pakistani program in the first place?
Saudis did it in exchange for Pakistan 'holding' the nukes for them. SA can have Nukes whenever they feel like it.

Nah mate.
Although, there is a 70% chance you'll never be caught if you murder someone in Detroit.

What's the likelihood of that? If they do decide to pursue the bomb, what will the Israelis do about it? The US? Would they be worse than Pakistan?
>>28444977
Your seeing the system that detonates the shell of explosives simultaneously. This is very important as it compresses the core to critical mass. There are wires, relays, switches and detonators all over that thing.
>>28445177
Just, answer the question. It won't go away and I'm on mobile. All I could do is tell myself how I'm not Zed and atleast I have an escuse, damned app.
>>28445179
The Saudis aren't dumb enough to try a nuclear program.
It'll destroy any western support they have.

From the studies I remember seeing this "good work motivation" starts to trend down pretty fucking quick once you get into the third generation (the original immigrant's grandchildren).
>>28445160
This. Oil glut was a mixture of China slowing in manufacturing, VatnikLand releasing more oil than last 20 years, and the Saudis taking advantage of that and nose-diving prices to force US drilling into submission. Prices should slabolize by September.
>>28445166
>There is a 70% chance you'll never be caught if you murder someone in Detroit.
Exactly. You won't have to explain yourself to anybody. Especially with a can and a good urban camo. So, could it possibly be worth it? Is it possible there's anything left other than copper? I suppose in order to get weapons you would have to fight gangsters, since they're the only ones that really have them, and the natives have looted all the jewelry and bullion by now.
house of saud probably already has at least a few nukes...they have the money.
