Additional classified records were discovered in former President Trump’s Mar-a-Lago bedroom after the FBI search of his Florida estate, court records filed Tuesday reveal. The detail is buried in …
Even if it were fired from space, a cannon large enough to fire a Cannon projectile would need to have a muzzle velocity of at least 1467 ft/sec to offset Earth’s orbital speed and begin the fall towards the Sun. While modern high velocity cannons can far exceed that for small solid projectiles, we’re talking about firing a federal judge-shaped fleshy mass. Even if such a Cannon cannon were to be constructed, it is highly likely that, upon firing, its passenger would simply be turned into a non-federal judge shaped (and decidedly more juicy) fleshy mass due to the acceleration forces.
What if we’re a bit fast and loose with the Cannon cannon, and we make it more of a rail gun. We should be able to make it long enough to accelerate the Cannon projectile to sufficient speeds without liquefying the contents like you would from the instantaneous acceleration from the Cannon cannon.
You put Cannon into a cannon and then you put the Cannon cannon into a rocket. You fire the rocket into space and then the cannon fires Cannon into the sun. That way you can recover the rocket since it, unlike Cannon, has value.

I’m ok with that result.

I don’t believe you. I think it could work just fine, and it should be tested to get to the bottom of this once and for all.
I’m ok with this.
Dude I saw star trek generations it was just this silly little rocket and it only took 10 seconds to reach the sun
try it for science or something
You had me at “something.”
What about a sabot?
Can someone get a Tested episode about this?
Unacceptable. We need a fully intact federal judge in orbit. Work it out, get it done. I want him identifiable with a telescope.
As long as the acceleration is spread out over about 1500 feet/500m, he should be fine.
That would require a rocket and not a Cannon cannon.

Ah, the old Cannon cannon rocket canon
I was thinking of a giant railgun with a capsule holding Cannon. Basically just a high-tech cannon.
Can we call it a gauss rifle? I’ve always wanted a gauss rifle.
