The Rod from God would penetrate several hundred feet into the Earth, destroying any hardened concrete bunkers or secret nuclear enrichment underground sites in perhaps EyeRan.. Can you imagine the sound of one of these Rods striking in say EyeRan? |

Anonymous Coward (OP) User ID: 77551517 United States 01/08/2020 05:30 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | On the back of the Rod from God is a rocket motor, which fires once the Rod has separated from the orbiting satellite... The rocket motor powers the Rod from God until gravity accelerates it to a speed approaching 36,000 feet per second... The Rod from God then goes through Earth’s atmosphere, eventually smashing into the target in EyeRan and into the crust of the earth hundreds of feet... RODs from GOD with the kinetic POWER of a tactical nuke, causes the crust to crack, spewing dirt and tearing up the ground as the shockwave travels, a man made earthquake no doubt.... With no hazardous fallout... The people just think it's Mother Nature, just another Earthquake??? May the SpaceFORCE be with YOU....... |

User ID: 28178764 United States 01/09/2020 10:01 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | A Solid tungsten Rod from God about the size of a telephone pole, dropped from say an earth orbiting satellite would reach a speed of up to 10 times the speed of sound when it hit its target... The Rod from God would penetrate several hundred feet into the Earth, destroying any hardened concrete bunkers or secret nuclear enrichment underground sites in perhaps EyeRan.. Can you imagine the sound of one of these Rods striking in say EyeRan? Quoting: Anonymous Coward 77551517 Retired aerospace engineer here. The ideal orbit for such weapons is not low Earth orbit. Although this would provide a more rapid response, it would require that the rod was on an orbit that crossed almost directly over the target. This is because it would not have cross range capability a la Space Shuttle. Ideal orbit is very high and elliptical. The energy required to change the orbit and cause impact over a wide target area is miniscule at apogee. Plus, the impact would be at Mach 25 or thereabouts, not Mach 10. Remember that energy is mass times velocity SQUARED, so higher velocity means a lot more energy. I never was briefed on such weapons. However, the logic is the same. The math says that if the "telephone pole" is made out of tungsten (very expensive!), then the enemies may not be able to bury their facilities deep enough. BTW, I was on a panel discussion with Jerry Pournelle in 1984 to speak about Star Wars projects. Is he still alive? Hope so. |

When asked whether there was "any military option the US can take with North Korea that would not put Seoul at grave risk," Mattis responded, "Yes, there are, but I will not go into details." So what does Mattis have in mind? He wouldn't say, but he did let slip one interesting comment. "Just to clarify, you said that there were possible military options that would not create a grave risk to Seoul," a reporter said later. "Are we talking kinetic options as well?" "Yes, I don't want to go into that," Mattis said, agreeing that his closely held military option involved kinetic action... --------------------- October 12th, 2017 North Korean underground Punggye-ri nuclear test site destroyed, 200 killed, by an USGS 2.9 shallow Earthquake?
