I wonder what ever happened to that mantle that got shot up by a nuclear explosion. - Lemmy.World

I read somewhere it must’ve turned molten from the atmosphere, but l wonder if like little droplets of metal fell down to earth or if it was just vaporized.

It reached orbit and is now actively seeking and destroying Musk’s Starlink satellites.
Doubtful. That thing was traveling three times faster than the fastest meteorite we’ve recorded entering the atmosphere. It probably vaporized almost as soon as it took off since 900 kilos of steel is nothing, ablatively speaking, at those speeds in sea level air pressure.
