The kinetic energy delivered by the theoretical rod of god would have left a much bigger mess. Much much bigger. It’s coming from space, so it’s traveling at 20-25k miles an hour. Imagine a giant chunk of depleted uranium hitting the ground in front of you at 20k miles an hour.
It’s basically the same destructive power as a nuke, without the dirty radiation.
True. The kinetic energy unleashed by a Tungsten rod impacting the earth at 20k miles per hour would leave a massive crater and have much more collateral damage.
They have it all, including Rods Of God.
