I highly recommend the ICBM museum in Tuscon. They go through the entire launch process for the tour. It takes less than a minute. It's quite something to imagine that within that short period, the end of civilization would be guaranteed.

Did the ICBM tour w/ a dad a few years back. It's definitely fascinating. 100% agreed worth the time

I still liked the old launch procedures where people where involved and no hyper sonic missiles. Back then, some guy could step back and say - "Okay, its all fucked, so why should i drop one more rock at some poor town in nowheristan?" and give those after us a living chance by behaving reasonable. Today that wont happen, and the machines are that much more likely to just MCAS kill us via a design failure.
