Nukes in Space! Another float in the Putin clown parade. Not serious, but amusing.

Hahahhahaha omg this question.

The US and Russia have enough nuclear arsenal to wipe out a large part of humanity. These nuclear warheads are shot almost automatically in case of a nuclear attack. This being the case, having more nuclear warheads in the space doesn't really increase risk. Quite differently, I'd even say it might be good: it helps to make people scared about atomic warfare and as long as people are scared, no one will use it. I'm more concerned about a time when people forget about the devastating impact a nuclear war may have, and therefore one power may try to surprise the other.

These results confuse me
