The thing is there is a video of Michio Kaku on youtube talking about Project Orion - spaceship that would be propelled by nuclear explosions which would propel them to speeds that 1ly could be traveled in 10 years - and at the end he says that the deal-breaker is that in order to have Orion spacecraft we would need to create mini nukes and that would be too dangerous world to live in, since terrorists could easily smuggle them into cities and detonate them.

So now that Trump is mini nuking does that mean we'll be flying to nearby stars?!

Brings me one step closer to hunting super mutants for realsies.

Shit, everything gets smaller as I get older: cops, chocolates, cars and statesmen.

It a terrible thing to age and get cynical Smile

We had two more in the Pacific at the time of the surrender, they were used for Tests Able and Baker rather than transport them back to the US. And we had a production schedule, initially of one per month, more as things got routine. I've studied this issue for thirty years, I'm confident of my material.

Materials were only manufactured for 3 bombs by the mid of 1945. The first was tested at Alamogordo, the second and third were expended in Hiroshima and Nagasaki. No additional bombs were immediately available afterwards, and material for new ones had to be manufactured. Operation Olympic was scheduled for nov 1945. The bombs for Able and baker were only ready in early 1946. The tests themselves were done in Jun and July of 1946.

Well, you're wrong. Check Richard Rhodes.

How long before the super mutants get their hands on them?

I dunno, but it seems wise to pick up the Big Boy from Arturo in Diamond City to maintain an acceptable balance of power.

Also - you should know the super mutants already have nukes.
