If anyone is in the mood for getting nerd-sniped: I'm curious if it would be possible to see such a light from earth (or earth orbit) using any actually existing telescope, and if so how bright would the light have to be.

- josu 2y agoI tried with a few LLMs, and they seem to agree (sometimes) around 10^15 lumens. A light wouldn't work, but it seems that a nuclear explosion close to Little Boy's would do it. PS: The best way to get an answer on the internet is to provide a wrong answer.
