While there have been a number of very large blasts used in mining, and accidents in making and transporting explosives, the largest non-nuclear explosion (not counting volcanoes) Was probably the spectacular accidental explosion of the N-1 rocket in the former Soviet Union in July 1969. The explosion was the equivalent of between 6-7 thousand tons of TNT.

How much more powerful can a NUCLEAR EXPLOSION THAN THE LARGEST CONVENTIONAL WEAPON?

A nuclear explosion can be millions of times more powerful than the largest conventional weapon. For instance, the largest conventional bomb, the GBU-43/B MOAB, has a yield of about 11 tons of TNT, while the most powerful nuclear bomb ever tested, the Tsar Bomba, had a yield of approximately 50 megatons of TNT. This means a nuclear explosion can surpass conventional weapons in destructive capability by a factor of thousands to millions, depending on the specific devices being compared.


If a nuclear weapon exploded on a nuclear Power Plant would the explosion radius increase?

No, a nuclear explosion on a nuclear power plant would not cause the explosion radius to increase. The explosion radius would be determined by the yield of the nuclear weapon itself, not by the presence of the power plant.
