The non-military grade signal open for general use isn't that accurate. Only the US mil has access to the super accurate signal, no other entity or country does.

Nice article in Scientific American which covers the news I posted on June 1. It covers recent paper (https://arxiv.org/abs/1805.11581 ). What can #GW170817 tell us about the structure of neutron stars? - https://static.scientificamerican.com/sciam/cache/file/53BC7429-19EB-4496-BB34E3601E27F14A.jpg?...

I’ve been itching to ask. What are stereotypical Pakistani looks? Is it the body habitus, facial hair or the actual physiognomy? Some say it’s actual ‘cruelty’ writ in the expression.

I would think the heat produced by a TNW will roast alive the crew of every tank in its blast radius. In WW2, flamethrowers and even molotov cocktails were efficient tank killers for this very reason. The "immediate" heat produced (within seconds) which is good enough to roast right-away ...
