How is this not a serious question? You fools really think aliens don't exist? 500 billion galaxies x 500 billion stars per galaxy = LOTS of chances for life out there. Who says they wouldn't want to invade earth one day?digital86
Yes but the chances that they there is intelligent life out there at this moment that has the ability to reach us and is hostile seem pretty slim.
why have nukes when we can have mechs?
TheShadowLord07
Or mechs that fire nukes! :o
If Crysis is anything to go by, nuclear weapons will make them stronger if the nukes do not explode on the inside (mothersihp, strider). With the regular aliens, normal guns work.
There will never be any aliens even if there are many other lifeforms out there cuz simply the laws of physics dont allow any remotely practical journey into another galaxy.
If aliens are technologically advanced enough to reach Earth and they're aggressive, then were hosed with nukes or not
I take this topic seriously. I have no idea why obama wants to rid the world of nukes. I guess he thinks that there is the risk of causing world war 3. personally, to me, without nukes we would be utterly defensless. think about it. what if we get rid of our nukes, and our enemies say they are getting rid of theirs when they are really putting theirs into storage or something? also, i agree 100% on the aliens thing. sure, there is a chance that nukes wouldnt work on them, but nuclear weapons are our most powerful weapons. its all we got. another thing you would have to realize is that scientifically nukes would be very effective against energy shields, should the aliens have them.
its simple really, the shields would be transparent to electro-magnetic radiation (like ordinary light). Light passes thru them, reflects off the vehicles, and passes back out. That's why we would be able to see them. The balst froma nuclear warhead is an enormous burst of electro-magnetic radiation. All that energy would pass thru the useless transparent shields and fry the aliens.
They are prolly just as advanced as we are. Why do we always think aliens have such superior technology such as "force fields" and "Super Lasers" and what not. By the time we get to interstellar travel who knows, they could also just be discovering interstellar travel. We will never know though.Dub_c6969We probably will never.. As it stands it takes the energy the earth provides for an entire week to get a object the mass of a bowling ball the speed of light.. Furthermore at those speeds a speck of dust can lead to fatal damage of the vessel due tot he amount of force behind it when it impacts.. A space craft would get obliterated.. Furthermore, the speed of light is slow in the grand scheme of things.. The closest star is some where around 4 to 10 lightyears away from us..
What makes you think America would REALLY get rid of all of their nukes. This is America founded on BSing a lot of people. My mom used to work for the Armed Forces and she told me that we have Nukes secretly stashed in underground silos that people will never know about. We might cut back on some of our Nukes but know Country is crazy enough to get rid of all of their Nukes.I take this topic seriously. I have no idea why obama wants to rid the world of nukes.

So why do people think aliens can overcome that? I know there is prolly life out there some where but for the same reasons you listed, im pretty sure they could not do the same, so we will never see aliens at least in our life time.
EDIT: Even if we could travel at the light of speed it would still be Humanly impossible to travel to another galaxy. Light is consider fast on earth but when taking about traveling to another galaxy SOL is very very slow, and know human would survive the trip until we some how create something that gives us immortality.

It holds too much advantage in exploiting countries with none such weapons, while being able to spar with the countries with the same weapons.I take this topic seriously.

America might be a lot of things but its not crazy enough to get rid of all of their nukes.
I understand its so we wouldnt nuke each other and destroy our civilization, BUT WHAT IF, aliens invaded earth? Will we throw rocks at them?digital86
Well if aliens made it to this planet, that means they have technology beyond ares..... so i dont think nukes would do much.... did you not see independence day! :P
hmm for some reason I saw this dumb question coming :?cyberdarkkidyou can see into the future :o amazing!!!
Wow.... See, that's what Area 51 is for. We have something beyond nuclear weapons in there... Kratos!GodofBigMacs
My friend was posted there for a few years, there are no aliens in there. They conducted lots of banned experiments like using hydrazine (used in satellites)to create superfast anti-gravity vehicles which people took it as alien space crafts.
That was 70 years ago. Its a little too long to be playing that card everytime.I think US has lost it's right to tell other countries about nuclear disarmament, especially after two nuclear strikes on Japan.

[QUOTE="Blubadox"]That was 70 years ago. Its a little too long to be playing that card everytime. The US is the only country to have ever used nuclear weapons in combat, so it's not too long at all. Also, these things cause massive collateral damage. That's why Obama wants rid or at least, get rid of some.I think US has lost it's right to tell other countries about nuclear disarmament, especially after two nuclear strikes on Japan.

First off, who the hell cares?
He doesn't really want to rid the world of nuclear weapons, and everyone should know if he says that he's spouting horse **** from his mouth.
Second off, pretty nuclear weapons will be useless against a species of intelligent being capable of galactic travel.

yea really. I bet they are blowing up planets already in their own galaxy/solar system. They would come over and rape us.First off, who the hell cares?

EDIT: we are just having wars against other countries, I bet they are having wars with other planets in other solar systems and what not!
How is this not a serious question? You fools really think aliens don't exist? 500 billion galaxies x 500 billion stars per galaxy = LOTS of chances for life out there. Who says they wouldn't want to invade earth one day?digital86yes they most likely do exist but the probability of them coming here is very small. So at the risk of aliens taking over getting rid of nukes so we don't blow up the planet is probably something we can do.

So at the risk of aliens taking over getting rid of nukes so we don't blow up the planet is probably something we can do. ... Small? Try non existent with the understanding of physics we know of today.. Say if we get to the speed of light (which is close to a impossibility it self, it literally would take an entire week of energy the Earth produces to launch a bowling ball any where close to the speed of light) and understand it would be like driving a glass car through a thick forest.. Any thing that remotely touches the craft going at that speed, say a spec of dust.. Would obliterate the space craft.. Furthermore the speed of light is a slow speed, the closest solar system to ours is like 6 to 10 lightyears away..
This is very amusing. Do you really think nuclear weapons are capable of killing sliens that have the ability to send warships/soliders/military etc.?

Even if we could go that fast it would STILL TAKE FOR EVER AND EVER TO TRAVEL ACROSS A GALAXY. We would have to be immortal to travel the SOL. SOL is fast on earth but nothing compared to crossing a galaxy let alone billion and trillions of them.
