The fireball kept expanding, its diameter rapidly reaching several kilometers, becoming a light point visible to the naked eye even from satellite orbit.
The intense electromagnetic pulse interfered with the satellite's communication systems, causing a brief distortion and snow on the images.
As the fireball continued to expand, the surrounding ground began to undergo drastic changes. The surface rocks and soil were vaporized by high temperatures, forming a massive mushroom cloud.
The height of the mushroom cloud quickly rose to tens of kilometers, with its top even reaching the stratosphere.
Data recorded by the satellite indicated that the shockwave from the explosion spread outward at a speed exceeding 10 kilometers per second, covering a radius of hundreds of kilometers.
At a ground observation station hundreds of kilometers from the explosion site, pre-arranged scientists witnessed this breathtaking explosion through telescopes.
