>Incidentally, nuclear detonations can happen, and there is some belief that very small ones did happen in Chernobyl, but the type of the explosion is really besides the point.

If you're going to make the claim that this is possible, we need a source.

Preferably not a source that uses 'bible prophecy'.



Lol, I just dug up the first article I could find, admittedly didn't check the news source.

But that source isn't for the claim you're quoting... that's for the (well known) claim that Chernobyl could have gone much worse if not for remdiation efforts, it shouldn't be hard to find alternate sources for that claim.

For the claim you're quoting, see the paper cited in the sibling comment to mine.

Edit: For completeness I'll relink that paper here: https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/00295450.2017.1...
