A few months back, the National Security Archive made national headlines when they released a 1956 US target list they had obtained under the Freedom of Information Act. The target list outlined over a thousand Strategic Air Command nuclear targets in the Soviet Union, Eastern Bloc, the People’s Republic of China, and North Korea. The Archive had posted a small graphic of the ones in Eastern Europe, but hadn’t digitized the full list. Several weeks ago, the people at the Future of Life Institute did just this, digitizing the complete dataset — no small task, given that these were spread over several hundred, non-OCR-able pages of smudgy, 60-year-old government documents.
My worst nightmare is the ultimate nuclear happening happens and we have no connections to shitpost about it

Plans must be in place to cut every underwater cable if shit hits the fan, so i doubt there will be Sup Forums.

Thermal radiation radius (3rd degree burns): 2.21 km (15.4 km2) Third degree burns extend throughout the layers of skin, and are often painless because they destroy the pain nerves. They can cause severe scarring or disablement, and can require amputation. 100% probability for 3rd degree burns at this yield is 8.9 cal/cm2.
Goddam, that shit scary.

Jesus, Eastern Europe would have looked like a massive version of the Glowing Sea in FO4 if this had happened.
