      Perhaps look closer at the “yes” and “no” on the arrows which are a very important (although small) part of this decision tree

    They forgot “is it followed by a bright flash and mushroom clouds?” → nuke, so grab some whiskey and make your peace because you’re probably too close.

    Is “fireball” a technical term here? Because I only know the wizard kind and they do end in a dramatic explosion.

      “Fireballs and bolides are astronomical terms for exceptionally bright meteors that are spectacular enough to to be seen over a very wide area. … A fireball is an unusually bright meteor that reaches a visual magnitude of -3 or brighter when seen at the observer’s zenith. … Fireballs that explode in the atmosphere are technically referred to as bolides although the terms fireballs and bolides are often used interchangeably.”
