How about nuclear tests and explosions? Would that be drawing curiosity?
- kenj0418 11y agoI wouldn't think those would be noticeable unless you were already closely observing the earth. I'm not a physicist, but I assume there isn't any detectable, unique signature of an explosion that can be detected from space. Stories I've read about test-ban treaties and non-proliferation efforts give the main mechanism for detecting tests are the seismic effects they have.
