00:00China tests non-nuclear hydrogen bomb that burns hotter than the sun.

00:05Chinese researchers tested a new non-nuclear hydrogen bomb using magnesium hydride,

00:12creating a 1,000-degree Celsius fireball that lasted over 2 seconds,

00:1715 times longer than TNT-based blasts.

00:24Triggered by explosives, the bomb forms micron-sized particles that release hydrogen gas,

00:29sustaining combustion and extending the fireball.

00:32It generated 428.43 kilopascals overpressure at 2 meters.

00:38Though it delivers 40% of TNT's force, the bomb's intense heat melts aluminum alloys

00:44and surpasses conventional thermal damage, serving both precise and wide-scale strikes,

00:50while aligning with China's clean energy goals.

00:53Beyond military use, this tech offers energy potential,

00:57magnesium hydride's hydrogen storage could power drones and submarines,

01:02blending defense and sustainability in a major technological leap.

01:09China's new Shanxi magnesium hydride plant scales production to 150 tons a year

01:16using safer one-pot synthesis.

01:19Developed by the Dalian Institute, it supports both civilian and military use,

01:24raising concerns over its tactical role in a Taiwan conflict.

01:29The bomb's extreme heat can strike urban or underground targets,

01:33and though it lacks nuclear materials and bypasses treaty bans,

01:37its thermobaric-like effects raise serious legal and humanitarian concerns,

01:43especially in civilian areas.

01:45China's hydrogen bomb, resembling thermobaric weapons,

01:50delivers weaker shockwaves but can precisely melt defenses,

01:54reshaping urban and underground warfare.

01:57Its development may spur global interest,

02:00leaving future humanitarian impacts uncertain.

02:03It's not too much for its counterpart to the ground.

02:04The second biggest thing of the damage is being used to the ground

02:05to the ground to the ground to the ground to do the ground to the ground is

02:06that the ground to the ground is becoming more or less.

02:08The network is on the ground to the ground to the ground,

02:10the building is becoming more and more.

02:11It's a multi-certain.
