facts-i-made-up aside, how much of a difference would vanta black actually have on a pools appearance? i figure after a certain point the waters own reflectivity more than makes up the difference

I mean I literally just woke up but it got me until the zombie drug and even that I wanted to look up.

The moment he started about “containing the heat inside” I was like doubt, it would be a miracle material used in everything if it did that (aka us mere mortals can’t afford it for something like a swimming pool)

Me too 🤦♀️

I was fully ready to believe that a vantablack pool would boil in direct sunlight. Not flash boil, but I excused that as the author being a bit enthusiastic.
Wasn't till the nuke that I was acting ready to call bullshit. The chlorine gas thing felt wrong, but I don't know enough about chemistry to be confident that flash boiling chlorinated water wouldn't produce chlorine gas at possibly lethal levels.

Here's my question.. does the thermal mass of the water mean nothing in this instance? Or does that merely dictate how quickly and violently it boils away?
-
Read the meme until the very bottom, it explains all.
-
Bruh THATS your problem with this?
But yeah that was my first objection too
-
Due to the high temperatures involved the difference made by the thermal mass is so negligible we can effectively model it as zero

I was like, "Waitaminute, how come terrorists haven't caught on to this thing yet if it's so deadly and why isn't it already illegal?"
-
boiling pools to destroy cities be like

I got so little sleep last night that I actually spent the time manually typing in and googling the "drug" name to learn more about it.
