This shockwave would have shoved the Mu Relay (located at the edge of the cleared out portion of a solar system) before it would have been hit by the really destructive part of the explosion.<br /><br />It's the theory that makes the most sense if you also take into account the Alpha Relay from the ME2: Arrival DLC. The asteroid there was capable of delivering 384.7 gigatons of kinetic energy. But considering how fast the relay fell apart upon contact, it took only a minute percentage of the impact. So, you're looking at single-digit gigaton to triple-digit megaton range; magnitudes short of a supernova.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18171116947446645884noreply@blogger.com
