North Korea may have tested components of a hydrogen bomb

"Alright, mash that there button."

"OK! The button works!"

"Don't forget, be here at 8:00 sharp in the morning. We're testing the pointy thing on the front end."

First on CNN: North Korea may have tested components of a hydrogen bomb

Well, there is a solution -

PRE-EMPTIVE!

The US was so damn positive they did not.....and they’re further ahead at missile development. Thank you Bubba and Albright.

Decoder Ring: Fission remnants indicate Tritium was used.
Yield still seems to indicate a partial failure

[1Old Pro]

Wait until they sell it to Iran.

Another fail for US intelligence, which initially dismissed it as being a hydrogen bomb test.

I can make an unsuccessful hydrogen bomb. I have several in my desk drawer....

Quite possible. As I recall from college physics, the energy required to initiate fusion in a thermonuclear device is generally through the use of a fission “bomb.”

That would explain the “smallish” explosion detected.
