☆ There's a major difference between a hydrogen bomb and an atomic bomb

Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" delves into the design and development of the atomic bomb. But nuclear experts say the atomic bomb is nowhere near as deadly as its nuclear cousin. Hydrogen bombs can be up to 1,000 times more powerful than atomic bombs. The device on the left is an implosion-type fission bomb, like the Fat Man bomb detonated over Nagasaki, and it compresses everything inward. Below is a second graphic showing a boosted atomic bomb and a hydrogen bomb.

☆ Here's why astronauts age slower than the rest of us here on Earth

That means astronauts on the International Space Station get to age just a tiny bit slower than people on Earth. And for astronauts on the International Space Station, that means they get to age just a tiny bit slower than people on Earth. That's why time passes slower for objects closer to the center of the Earth where the gravity is stronger. That means time should also slow down for the astronauts relative to people on the surface. You'd think that might even out, but actually their velocity time dilation has a bigger effect than their gravitational time dilation, so astronauts end up aging slower than people on Earth.
