What If, in the first hours of 1980, 3 thermonuclear
devices get detonated on the Atlantic Ocean,
on the Pacific Ocean and on the Indic Ocean,
near enough to land that the fireball gets sighted,
even if relatively small damage happens.
Later, there is an influx of scientists and technicians,
from the whole world. It is found that there is a
ridiculous low concentration of radioactive
contamination, even if the fireball and other
fenomena imply an explosion of around 5 megatons.
The same day, on various channels of communication, all over the world.
a message is broadcast claiming resposibility for the detonation. The message claims to come from a grop that discovered a process of detonating
thermonuclear explosions without the need of
a triggering fission device, or heavy hydrogen
isotopes. The group declares they will auction the process no later than a monthe hence.... They also menace to DIVULGE worldwide their discovery, in case efforts are made to locate them. They further declare that the devices they detonated were assembled at an expense of just 150 dollars apiece...
What will happen?
