What is the only thing that can survive a nuclear bomb?
Cockroaches were discovered around the site of the Hiroshima blast, and seemed to be thriving in the area even though there were no other living things left alive. They can survive for up to a month without food, giving them the strongest chance of survival in a post-apocalyptic nuclear wasteland.
Can any building survive a nuclear bomb?
It’s even possible to survive a nuclear blast near ground zero if you happen to be inside a robust building, such as a fortified structure or an underground facility, says Brooke Buddemeier, a certified health physicist at Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory in Livermore, California.
Will a freezer survive a fire?
A fridge or freezer is definitely the most effective choice, as such items are the most likely to survive a house fire. Also, a thief would probably not think to look in such places. It is also possible to bury your valuables in the ground, inside a soup can, to act as a fireproof safe in such situations.

What would it take to survive a nuclear explosion?
This means that an object nearby will be heated “through and through”, as the neutron flux diffuses through it. For an object to survive, it would have to have a combination of extremely small neutron cross section, high heat capacity, and high melting point. I don’t believe materials exist with a sufficient combination of these properties. Share
Will we ever be able to keep nuclear weapons out of hands?
I open with this short thought to help you understand that we will not be able to keep nuclear weapons out of the hands of those w ho want to use them against America. On a micro yet terrifying scale, there are countries TODAY that hate us and have access to nuclear weapons.
Could Ohio’s nuclear power plant become a target for homegrown terrorists?
There is a massive nuclear power plant in Ohio that is in the top 10 based on size. This plant could also become an inland target of a homegrown terrorist as well. Not knowing where these weapons would be built or where they would originate makes it very tough to understand where they would be detonated.
What would happen if the average person could build a nuclear bomb?
If somehow a person could get the materials to build a viable nuclear bomb it would be massive and hard for the average person to move. If a small weapon was created or a dirty bomb I imagine it would still be detonated near its place of origin.
