Abstract

The theory of Adventure Time suggests that a nuclear bomb's blast provides enough energy to push the Earth into the path of a nearby comet. With the use of astro-dynamics and nuclear physics we find that a Uranium-235 bomb with a mass of 8.73 x 10^14 ± 2.07 x 10^13 kg would need to be “detonated” on Earth to successfully accelerate it into the path of Lexell's Comet.
