What If We Detonated a Nuclear Bomb on the Moon?

The U.S. Air Force considered trying to detonate a nuclear device on the moon during the late 1950s. A physicist who worked on the project said a single explosion would have been "microscopic," with little impact. But what if the plans had been bigger—do we have enough nuclear weapons to push the moon out of orbit? Not even close. Depending on where the detonation happened, sending the moon careening away from Earth would take somewhere between 10 billion and 10 trillion megatons of TNT. The most powerful nuclear device ever detonated, the Soviet Union's "Tsar Bomba," yielded the energy equivalent of 50 megatons of TNT. The current nuclear arsenal of the world could produce less than 7,000 megatons. The moon is constantly edging away from us, though, without any human intervention. The moon's pull drags a portion of the Earth's water out of its natural position, creating bulges at each end of the planet. As Earth rotates, these bulges exert force on the moon, adding to its kinetic energy and making its orbit grow larger. On average, the moon floats 3 or 4 centimeters further away every year. Life without the moon would be strange in the near term and disastrous in the long term. If the stabilizing influence of the moon disappeared, the Earth would begin to teeter dramatically on its axis, and seasons would no longer be constant. Over the long term, it's possible the Earth could topple over, as apparently happened to Uranus, which orbits the sun on its side.

As a young ER doctor, Peter Attia felt contempt for a patient with diabetes. She was overweight, he thought, and thus responsible for the fact that she needed a foot amputation. But years later, Attia received an unpleasant medical surprise that led him to wonder: is our understanding of diabetes right? Could the precursors to diabetes cause obesity, and not the other way around? A look at how assumptions may be leading us to wage the wrong medical war.

The question “How do I know this is my body?” has tickled Henrik Ehrsson’s mind since he was a kid. As a neuroscientist he’s studying the human brain and the correlation between body and mind. New scientific achievements indicate that we could have real out-of-body experiences, which can be of good use in various fields, from bionic limbs to artificial intelligence. Henrik Ehrsson is a cognitive neuroscientist at Karolinska Institutet, Stockholm, Sweden. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx

Virtual Reality is not a new technology, it’s been around in various forms for decades, but enthusiasts believe it’s now on the cusp of a golden age. Driven by an increase in research money and significant advances in picture resolution and technical functionality, interest in the potential of VR is going well beyond the games and entertainment industry. The pairing of these developments with an exponential growth in certain technology sectors evokes scenarios of the future taken from the pages of sci-fi literature. VR pioneer Cosmo Scharf will paint his vision of our shared future. More information on http://www.tedxvienna.at Cosmo Scharf co-founded VRLA, the world's largest virtual reality expo, the Proto Awards, the first award show for VR, and Visionary VR, a start-up building software for storytelling in VR. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at http://ted.com/tedx
