Biggest explosions in the universe powered by strongest magnets. Some long-duration gamma-ray bursts are driven by magnetars. FULL STORY. This artist's impression shows a supernova and associated gamma-ray burst driven by a rapidly spinning neutron star with a very strong magnetic field -- an exotic object known as a magnetar.
Type: Largest impact in recorded history. On June 30, 1908, there was a large explosion above the Podkamennaya Tunguska River, in Russia. The explosion created an estimated yield of 10-15 megatons of TNT, or about 1,000 times the yield of the atomic bomb that destroyed Hiroshima, Japan.
Type: Largest explosion created by a non-nuclear weapon. FOAB (Father of all Bombs) is a Russian tactical weapon, designed to detonate in mid-air and deliver an incinerating shockwave to the target area below it.
