“A mouse never entrusts his life to only one hole”*…
Larger version here… Well, our earth is riddled with them. And as our old friend Randall Munroe at xkcd reminds us, some of them are very deep…
“Holes”

As we spelunk, we might recall that it was on this date in 1962 that the U.S. military detonated Little Feller I, a tactical nuclear weapon at the Nevada Test Site as part of Operation Sunbeam. It was the last near-ground atmospheric nuclear detonation conducted by the United States. The high-altitude Fishbowl tests concluded in November of1962 with a detonation at around 69,000 feet altitude. Thereafter, in accordance with the 1963 Partial Test Ban Treaty, tests were conducted underground… more holes.

It’s hard to overstate how incredibly reckless and destabilizing an idea this is: it’s bad enough knowing that there are thousands of weapons half a world away that can reach targets in under an hour, not imagine those same weapons constantly orbiting over your head, with time to target reduced to mere minutes.
Not to mention the risk of accidents or questions like how to de-orbit them, or the possibility of nuclear space junk (not so) randomly landing around the world, or what happens in the event of a Kessler cascade.

…#Trump seemed unconcerned that the last major #NuclearArms control agreement with #Russia was set to expire in 4 weeks, leaving the world’s 2 largest #nuclear powers free to expand their arsenals without limit, for the first time in half a century.
“If it expires, it expires,” he said. “We’ll just do a better agreement,” he added, insisting that #China, which has the fastest-growing #arsenal in the world, should be incorporated in any future agreement. -
