10,000 nuclear bombs exploded, the Earth was not harmed?

There has always been some idea that the energy released from a nuclear bomb explosion around the world could destroy the Earth N times over! But is this really true?

Human history recorded in writing only dates back a few thousand years, we have only entered industrial civilization for a few hundred years, while the Earth has been around for 4.57 billion years and has gone through many changes. Species on Earth have evolved and changed over time, even dinosaurs ruled the Earth for more than 100 million years. However, the Earth is still stable today, but humans are still worried that we may not be able to withstand some kind of natural disaster in the future and become extinct. Or maybe we ourselves will destroy the Earth with nuclear bombs, but is this really possible?

There are very few nuclear bombs in the world with destructive power of up to tens of millions of tons.

The most powerful nuclear bomb is the hydrogen bomb, an upgraded version of the hydrogen bomb that can theoretically reach the power of more than 10 billion tons of explosives. The largest nuclear bomb ever detonated in history was the Tsar hydrogen bomb detonated by the Soviet Union in 1961. The explosive yield was as high as 5,000 tons of TNT. For humans, the Tsar hydrogen bomb has extremely terrifying power, but for the Earth, that little bit of explosive energy is just enough to scratch an itch, compared to the energy released by natural disasters such as large earthquakes, the energy it creates is really insignificant.

Humans claim to be the masters of the Earth, but in reality we can hardly control our own destiny, because we are vulnerable to many types of natural disasters.

There are currently more than 10,000 nuclear bombs in the world , but very few have the destructive power of tens of millions of tons , even millions of tons is quite a small number. When tens of thousands of these nuclear bombs explode at the same time, their destructive power will certainly be very surprising, but as mentioned before, this energy will not affect the Earth much, and destroying the Earth is even more unlikely.

The great scientist Einstein once said that matter contains an infinite amount of energy. But whether it is nuclear fusion or nuclear fission, the theoretical energy conversion rate that can be achieved is still very limited, and the actual conversion rate is always lower than the theoretical one.

Humanity has only recently mastered nuclear energy and nuclear bombs, and it is not yet possible to fully control nuclear fusion reactions. In terms of energy control, humanity has only achieved initial success. And in theory, if we can master antimatter energy and achieve a 100% mass-to-energy conversion rate, then we can achieve the ability to completely destroy the Earth. However, theory is still just theory. Up to now, we have not been able to prove the authenticity of antimatter and no one has been able to search for and obtain antimatter energy.

Accordingly, if all of humanity's current nuclear bombs exploded together, what would be destroyed would certainly not be the Earth, but instead the habitat of humans and the animals and plants on our planet. At that time, humans would likely go extinct en masse, while the Earth would continue to exist as it had after previous mass extinctions.
