Human colony on the Moon: NASA, Russia, and China's plans for 2026. Construction deadlines, budget, base location selection, and main scientific challenges.

Hypothetical scenario: what if an RBMK reactor explosion similar to Chernobyl occurred not in a sparsely populated area but in the heart of densely populated Central Europe? Mapping the radioactive fallout, evacuation zones, economic collapse, and the reshaping of a continent.

Chernobyl disaster: 40 years later — history, heroes, consequences, and rebirth

In this article, a hypothetical scenario of a full-scale nuclear war is examined, and the potential of various countries to survive under conditions of a global catastrophe is assessed. Based on an analysis of scientific research and expert assessments, the key factors determining the ability of a state and its population to endure a nuclear conflict and the ensuing nuclear winter are reconstructed. Special attention is given to researchers' conclusions that only a limited number of countries, mainly located in the Southern Hemisphere, possess the necessary conditions for preserving agricultural production and social stability in the post-apocalyptic period.
