It's the nature of metal. You'll lose signal inside a metal framed building, right? Figures you'd lose signal in a giant aluminum tube.
It could also be a still from a video of a fuel-air bomb explosion. The bomb bursts, producing a large cloud of fuel, not sure what exactly is used...
The nuclear winter theory is that the dust kicked up by the explosions of alot of nukes would block sunlight, producing a cooling effect. I don't...
THese don't generally last very long here. The best was the Sciforums Fleet. I still have to do another thing for that one.

Most of the ideas I played around with in my head involved a mortar like gun with a 1m bore, about 200-500m long. I think 20,000 Gs is the limit....
Islolated areas eliminate the problem with noise pollution. Payloads would be hardened to take the shock and vibration of launch. While they will...
True that. Perhaps specifying the galaxies would work better.
I was looking for an old thread to link to, saw this, and wondered if, having been resurected, it would go in the cesspool. BTW, happy birthday to...
