9/11 Twin Towers Collapse and Vaporization Cannot Be Explained by Nano-Thermite Alone

Nano-thermite (a finely-granulated version of thermite, an incendiary long used to weld railroad tracks and to disable artillery using thermite grenades) has been oversold by those who claim that it holds the key to understanding how the Twin Towers were taken down. This thesis, promulgated by the lame stream media as the predominant if not exclusive “9/11 truth movement” view, is very easy to disprove, thus further confirming that what you call the “fake news” media is totally complicit in maintaining an official narrative that is false.

It is a law of materials science that, in order for an explosive to destroy a material, it must have a detonation velocity equal to or greater than the speed of sound in that material. Nanothermite does not satisfy that condition for either concrete or steel, which makes it a non-starter for this role.

The speed of sound in concrete is 3,200 meters/second and in steel 6,100 meters/second. The highest possible detonation velocity for nanothermite in the scientific literature is only 895 meters/second – 28% of what is required for concrete, and 15% of what is required for steel.
