It'd be a nice fourth of July though.

"This has been the most powerful bomb exploded to date," stated nuclear weapons expert Noah Cain, "and capable of destroying the entire state of Rhode Island."
please do, would make the world a better place

Preliminary estimates put the explosive power of the nuclear bomb at 10,000 that of the one dropped on Hiroshima.
220 Megatons. Twice the largest bomb ever designed, 4 times the largest one ever tested (which was a derated version of that 100MT one).
The 50MT Czar bomb was large, very large. The launch aircraft barely got away, in fact was barely able to lift the thing.

The source was probably TheOnion.
Someone's april fool's joke being picked up as news by accident (or not by accident, I don't see a date on that article) is another strong possibility.

Remember a few years ago TV here reported that a new fruit was to hit stores, a cross between an apple and an orange... People flocked to stores to be the first to get it, next day (2 April) the news agency had to apologise...

fake. we would all be dead if the moon blew up
Not immediately. Would take a while for the tidal effects to change the climate to the point where the earth would be uninhabitable.
Anyway, the article doesn't claim the moon was blown up, just hit with a really big bang.
As people are clearly allowed to attack me but I'm not allowed to defend myself, I no longer post to this site.

Wouldn't the moon's pieces hit the Earth and kill a lot of people be4 the tidal effects occurred? Depending on how much of the moon was blown into complete oblivion..

Big boom.
