The Most Destructive Technology in Foundation? The Mule’s Cobalt Spike Explained

What if a single burst of energy could make a star erupt and erase a planet in seconds?

In Apple TV+’s Foundation, the Mule does exactly that with his terror-inspiring cobalt spike, a piece of technology fired through a captured jump gate straight into a star’s core.

In this video, we break down the science.

We’ll explore artificial wormholes, the nuclear alchemy of cobalt isotopes, and the astrophysics of coronal mass ejections — all while asking the big question: Could this ever be possible? Whether you’re fascinated by Foundation or love epic science-fueled “what if” scenarios, this is where fiction meets the edge of reality.

The perfect video for scientific English students, physics fans, and lovers of Isaac Asimov’s universe
