Sooner-or-later, at random, the world will be faced with the threat of a large Comet impact. Our only recourse will be to Nuke it.
In order to know how large the thermonuclear device needs to be to either deflect or destroy it there are two questions:
- What is the expansion velocity of vaporized water ice in Space?
- Per Mt of yield (net) what volume/mass of water ice would be vaporized?
KISS please. I need to explain this to politicians...
