Well?
Edit 1:
To those of you who farted in my general direction...
Oh, what sad times are these when passing ruffians can say Ni at will to old ladies. There is a pestilence upon this land, nothing is sacred. Even those who arrange and design shrubberies are under considerable economic stress in this period in history.

NightGia wins!
You may cross the bridge!
Edit 3:
Some of you had some surprising responses. Then again...
NOBODY expects the Spanish Inquisition! Our chief weapon is surprise...surprise and fear...fear and surprise.... Our two weapons are fear and surprise...and ruthless efficiency.... Our *three* weapons are fear, surprise, and ruthless efficiency...and an almost fanatical devotion to the Pope.... Our *four*...no... *Amongst* our weapons.... Amongst our weaponry...are such elements as fear, surprise.... I'll come in again.

[spoiler]Hello OP (or anyone who has decided to open the spoiler and read all of this).
I'm one of the Bungie.Net Ninjas. We may have met before, we may have interacted, you might have heard of us, or you may have no clue as to who we are and what we do. Well, this little note is to explain some of the things we do. One of the major roles we play is to handle the reports that come in whenever a member clicks on the "Report" button, to let us know that there is a post, a topic or a user that either doesn't understand or isn't following the rules that we all agreed to follow when we joined. But that's not the Ninja function that brought on this note.
The reason I am writing this is because I have retagged your thread. Bungie.Net uses hashtags to designate their major forums and to help keep things organized. Your OP (original post) was opened, created or given a hashtag that well, wasn't the best choice. It could have been that you were browsing through the [u][url=https://www.bungie.net/en/Forum/Categories]various forum/tags[/url][/u] that are available on the site or app, and clicked on "New Topic" while in a forum that didn't "match up" with the subject matter of your OP. Or, you may have thought "this belongs here", when unfortunately, it doesn't.
That's another role of the Bungie.Net Ninjas. We not only try to keep things fun, pleasant and welcoming here by removing rule-breakers, but we also want EVERY good topic to have the best chance to survive, thrive, find the right audience, and get lots of on-topic replies. And so, I have retagged your topic to move it to the forum where it has the best chance of doing that.
I give you my word that I have not altered a single letter or character of your Original Post, just placed this message below it and set the tag to better describe your topic. You may notice that you are unable to edit this post anymore. That is a part of the system, and I apologize for any inconvenience that it may have caused. I've not replied or commented on your OP, since this message would most likely be "off-topic" to your thread and when members see a Ninja or Mentor (who are volunteers from the community) or even a Bungie employee post, they tend to go a little crazy and the disruption to the thread becomes a distraction. I don't want that to happen to your thread. I want it to be in the BEST place possible, to be seen by the largest audience who is looking for this sort of topic, I want it to take root, get replies, grow strong and make these forums a better place.
If you have any questions, you should feel free to PM me. My name is now in the upper right corner of your OP where it says "edited by".
Thanks for your patience, thanks for being a part of this community, thanks for taking the time to read all of this (I hid it in a spoiler so that anyone who clicked couldn't complain about "too long, didn't read"), and thank you in advance for creating your future topics with the forum/tag location in mind.

I know estimated specs of a nova bomb. The core collpase of a supernova is about 100 foe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Supernova#Interstellar_impact 100 foe is approximatley 10^44 joulesx100 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Foe_(unit) 10^44 joulesx100 is about 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 joules or around 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 yottajoules (the sun puts out about 400 YJ per second) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joule#Yottajoule you got it so far? Good. Now the height of the nova bomb is about...50 meters or so (cant find any exact measurements but this video shows proper height https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Yytp7hCYXfU ) this is obviously not enough height to make it go through orbit. Figuring out the radius of the novabomb was tough but I was able to get an estimate. The novabomb blast is roughly the radius of a control zone in control as you can see in this video at 2:29 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8ax1n6B3beY And the control zone length from the middle is about the length of one guardian as seen in this video at 5:11 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VGaTJJnzc6I (you just have to slightly turn the dead hunter.) And the size of the average guardian is about 7 ft 7 in tall http://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/2v03r6/how_tall_are_guardians_a_fairly_inaccurate/ 7 ft 7 in tall is about 2.3 meters. Now we plug in the results into this handy dandy calculator http://www.calculatorsoup.com/calculators/geometry-solids/hemisphere.php (yes the nova bomb is a hemisphere. You can see for yourself when using vortex.) and the results we get are as follows: r = 2.3 m C = 14.4513 m V = 25.4825 m3 A = 33.2381 m2 B = 16.619 m2 K = 49.8571 m2 C = base circumference V = volume A = curved surface area B = base surface area K = total surface area So here we have the power of the dying star across a very small space. Sound good so far? Great, because next we will be identifying the speed of the nova bomb. Now excuse me while I go get the speed of the nova bomb on my warlock. I will be back shortly. Alright! So my warlock doesn't have lance so i can't get the max speed unfortunately. After doing some testing, I figured that each step your guardian takes without running is about 1 foot. The distance that all 3 of nova bombs traveled to was about 13 feet on average, I measured this by walking to where the nova bomb hit. The time it took to go 13 feet was about 3 seconds. We divide 13 by 3 and get 4.33333333 infinitely so I'll just bump it up to 4.5. 4.5 feet per second is roughly 3 miles per hour. Not the fastest moving object but faster than me in 6th grade. I am unfortunately unable to provide evidence to my claims but if you have any evidence that contradicts mine then just show it and I'll adjusts my results accordingly. So for my final analysis we have 10,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 yottajoules of energy in a nova bomb A guess of 50 feet of maximum height for nova bomb r = 2.3 m C = 14.4513 m V = 25.4825 m3 A = 33.2381 m2 B = 16.619 m2 K = 49.8571 m2 Above are the measurements for nova bomb So in short we have a slow moving super that can destroy anything* *It seems that you can control what your novabomb destroys as allies and the environment can withstand it just fine whereas creatures of the darkness and certain objects can be damaged. Can I cross the bridge?
