"The scientists calculated that it would take about 5 times 10^54 joules of energy to create such a cavity. (For perspective, humanity's total global energy consumption each year is about 6 times 10^20 joules.)"

To put it into the ordinary layman's perspective.

So what they are really trying to say is that this explosion created orders of magnitude more global warming than anything we ever could do.

How dare it!

Someone better get little miss thunberg in front of the u.n. to demand the universe refrain from ever doing that again!

1 kiloton is equal to 4.184 TJ (tera joule or 10E+12 joules)

Son in comparison

The Little Boy atomic bomb dropped on Hiroshima exploded with an energy of about 15 kilotons of TNT (63 TJ), and the Fat Man atomic bomb dropped on Nagasaki exploded with an energy of about 20 kilotons of TNT (84 TJ).
