This episode explores the emerging nuclear confrontation between Russia, the United States, and China through the lens of The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin. It connects current geopolitical events — Putin’s test of the Poseidon underwater nuclear drone, Trump’s call for U.S. nuclear testing, and China’s rapid nuclear expansion — to the novel’s idea of an unstable three-body system where no balance is possible.

The analysis argues that each power represents a distinct force of deterrence: Russia’s spectacle of destruction, America’s theatre of parity, and China’s silent strategic patience. Together, they form a chaotic triad that mirrors both Mearsheimer’s theory of great-power insecurity and Liu Cixin’s vision of cosmic instability.

In the end, the piece suggests that humanity has entered a new “nuclear era of the Real,” where fear and uncertainty themselves — not actual war — govern international order.
