Description

Fans frequently pose strange questions to Munroe, such as: What would happen if you tried to hit a baseball pitched at 90% the speed of light? How fast can you hit a speed bump while driving and survive? Or, in the event of a robot apocalypse, how long would humanity last?

To find the answers, Munroe conducts computer simulations, digs through declassified military research, solves complex equations, and consults with experts. The result is a mix of humor and insight, often involving massive explosions or the potential destruction of humanity, all accompanied by his signature xkcd comics.
