#nukemap

Le site Nukemap, développé par l’historien de la science Alex Wellerstein, permet aux utilisateurs de simuler les effets d’une explosion nucléaire dans n’importe quelle ville du monde. Cet outil interactif a pour objectif de sensibiliser le public aux conséquences catastrophiques de l’utilisation de ces armes de destruction massive, en montrant avec précision l’étendue des dégâts humains et…

WHO WANT TO PLAY ?

Je ne suis pas un grand fan de la question nucléaire, bien au contraire mais qui ne s’est pas un jour demandé “quel serait l’impact d’une bombe comme celle d’Horoshima” sur ma ville ou ma région ? Comment juger de la force destructrice des missiles balistiques américains et russes? Voici un travail remarquable d’Alex WELLERSTEIN, historien de l’arme nucléaire travaillant dans un Collège…

I can’t believe I’m writing this post. I grew up during the Cold War and let me tell you, Cold War 2 is something to be avoided. Being a Cold War hostage is not good. Not good at all. It’s a constant threat to your life by faceless political machines who value you only as cannon fodder in a nuclear standoff. The machines are protected. You are not. Some people think it will be different in Cold War 2. It won’t. The same political machines who fought the Cold War are still in existence although creaky and degraded with age. If those same machines fight a second Cold War, I doubt we’ll get lucky twice. The machines are senile and desperate because they know their time is short.

So, to get us in the mood for Cold War 2 and possible nuclear annihilation, here are a few links from the Cold War.

NUKEMAP: nuclear weapons effects data

NUKEMAP is an interactive map using Google Maps API and unclassified nuclear weapons effects data, created by Alex Wellerstein, a historian of science at the Stevens Institute of Technology who studies the history of nuclear weapons. The initial version was created in February 2012, with major upgrades in July 2013, which enables users to model the explosion of nuclear weapons (contemporary, historical, or of any given arbitrary yield) on virtually any terrain and at virtually any altitude of their choice. A variation of the script, NUKEMAP3D, features rough models of mushroom clouds in 3D, scaled to their appropriate sizes. NUKEMAP3D doesn’t work on most browsers anymore for NPAPI plugins are no longer supported by them.
