Why not launch an immense amount of nuclear heads in a far planet like Venus or Mercury, just for fun? (lemmy.world)

2 flaws I see.

All countries have a gentleman agreement not to launch nuclear material into space. If the launch failed, it'd be catrostrophic for people here in earth.

It's really expensive to launch stuff into space, getting stuff out of the earths orbit is another level of power beyond getting it above the atmosphere.
