    Any experiment to falsify quantum mechanics?

    It seems almost everyone agrees Q.M. is right nowadays. I wonder whether there are still people doing experiments/ observations that aim to falsify quantum mechanics. How can one design such an experiment? Thanks!

    Can a nuclear bomb detonated from orbit actually destroy the Earth?

    All right. So let's assume it is not Earth but some extremely dense planet that a nuclear bomb can just orbit 'freely' around at speed close to c. Then what would happen?

    Can a nuclear bomb detonated from orbit actually destroy the Earth?

    Thank! But is it possible to resolve this 'dilemma' without using any equations? Just qualitative explanation is enough. Thanks again!

    Can a nuclear bomb detonated from orbit actually destroy the Earth?

    I did not realize one need to consider general relativity here. But this makes it even more confusing. I am not sure what Earth people should see now. Could you elaborate?

    Can a nuclear bomb detonated from orbit actually destroy the Earth?

    Suppose there is a nuclear bomb orbiting around the Earth at speed close to c. Some Bad Guy tries to set off the bomb by some remote control device? Wil he successfully destroy the Earth in this way? From the perspective of the bomb, it seems it is possible. But from the earth, it seems the...
