If Russia Wanted To Nuke Boise… Could They Reach Us?
The world is in a weird place at the moment and all eyes are seemingly on the United States of America. The world held its breath this past weekend with the attempted and failed assassination attempt on former president and current candidate Donald Trump.
It's a dark reminder that the world is unpredictable and can change in a split second.
Are we still worried about Russia?
You better believe it and it doesn't seem like the US is going to turn a blind eye to Russia anytime soon. Also, being that we're in an election year, it's likely that Russia is paying close attention to everything happening in the US, waiting to see what their next move will be once we complete our election.
Many Americans are wondering how this election will impact our diplomacy with the rest of the world, especially with Russia.
But, what if Russia got fed up? What if they decided that war was the best option and they wanted to strike first? Could their weapons reach us?
Sure, they can make up some ground by firing off their weapons from a carrier ship at sea, but what if they wanted to launch from Russia?
We're looking at one of their most powerful weapons and using the information we found, we're able to determine if Russia's superweapons can make it to Boise or not.
By the way, the distance between Russia and Boise?
7,739 km or 4808.792 miles.
