Earthshattering Kaboom!
(Note: Originally written 7 Nov, 2003)
There’s Supposed to be an Earthshattering Kaboom!
Guy Fawkes plot ‘was devastating’. uhm … duh? If Fawkes had blown Parliament to pieces like he had planned the face of London would be very different.
As a bit of fun to mark Bonfire Night, the Institute of Physics asked researchers at the University of Wales to work out the size of blast Fawkes might have made.
Don’t hurt yourselves there okay?
