I feel(*) it's not about the critical mass, but the critical density - that's why you need strong compression (either chemical explosives, or xrays from a smaller nuclear bomb) to trigger the explosion (exponential runoff chain re

But there is no indication that it breaks every month, and there is a strong indication that it breaks less ten once every 6 years. Also there is literally no indication that it takes 2 months to repair. What I am seeing from you is just ne

Depends on what we see in the images. If we see space structures that are undeniable artificial, spanning tens of billions of light years in size, yes, that would be something that the president would announce.
