China Reportedly Conducts Test of Non-Nuclear Hydrogen BombThe explosion of a 2 kilogram bomb (4.4 pounds) created a fireball with a temperature over 1,000 degrees Celsius (over 1,832 degrees Fahrenheit), which remained over 2 seconds - 15 times longer than the result of an equivalent TNT explosion, the South China Morning Post reported.The Chinese scientists from the China State Shipbuilding Corporation’s (CSSC) 705 Research Institute reportedly used magnesium hydride as a storage material for solid fuel hydrogenThe newspaper specified that a hydrogen explosion can cause more thermal damage, as a fireball after an explosion lasts much longer.AI-generated imageSubscribe to @sputnik_africa Sputnik Africa
