From N. Korea to the Windy City with love: 39 minutes

North Korea has the world on edge.

In July, the isolated nation test-launched intercontinental ballistic missiles, or ICBMs, that can reportedly deliver nuclear warheads to targets thousands of miles away. And as journalists revealed in August, US intelligence officials think North Korea has also figured out how to miniaturize its warheads to fit atop ICBMs.

While many weapons experts question the exact capabilities of North Korea's latest hardware, few deny it represents worrisome progress toward the nation becoming a credible nuclear threat. Experts are also concerned the maturing ICBM program could proliferate nuclear weapons around the world, raise the likelihood of nuclear accidents, and bring the world closer to the brink of what could be a global calamity.

"Based on current information, [the July 28] missile test by North Korea could easily reach the US West Coast, and a number of major US cities," David Wright, a physicist and the co-director of the Union of Concerned Scientists' global security program, wrote in a recent blog post.

To estimate how long it'd take for North Korean missiles to reach key US targets, Business Insider called up Wright for help.

The interactive feature below shows approximate flight times from the North Pyongan province (where the ICBMs were test-launched) to several key US targets. Those locations include Washington DC, New York City, Los Angeles, Honolulu, Chicago, Anchorage, and Guam — where there's a major US military presence.

Given what they tested in 2013, and assuming their physics package is reliable, with a CEP of 10KM, NUKEMAP says to drive West/Southwest.

single stage device only has a destruction radius of a few miles. You can get out of that.

it's the two-stage thermonuclear devices that would wipe out an entire city the size of Chicago. Current NK bomb would just take out the center of the city. Fallout is a danger of course, but if you're away from the prevailing winds you can be fine. Also don't look at the blast and have something between you and the bomb when it goes off to avoid flash burns

Talked to my wife about this last night. Quite a heated discussion truly. She said that someone would let us know if this was an issue that we really had to worry about. That's what people are paid to do she said. I said like 9/11? Then proceeded to sleep on the couch.

I'd watch an Illini Athletics highlight film covering the past two decades and then take the last 38 minutes off.

Come on. Illinois has been to the Rose Bowl, Sugar Bowl, and the men's bball championship game in the last two decades.

That's at least 5 minutes worth of material.

I'm comforted knowing that you'd spend your last minutes watching Illini sports.
