Nuclear X-rays Could Deflect Asteroids and Protect Earth, Study Suggests
- Wednesday September 25, 2024
- Written by Gadgets 360 Staff
Researchers from Sandia National Laboratories have discovered that exploding a nuclear bomb near an asteroid may produce X-rays powerful enough to push it off course. Instead of blowing the asteroid apart, the method involves vaporising its surface to alter its trajectory. Using the Z Machine, the world’s most powerful X-ray source, they successf...
