This is approximately what the Moscow Times said

I Don’t Believe a Missile Is to Blame for Russia’s Deadly 'Nuclear' Explosion. The basic laws of physics mean there is no such thing as a nuclear-powered missile.

Which is confusing.

Most non NPC's would have guessed it was just a satellite with nuclear power. Second would be something really simple nuclear near by or on board.

But is Russian really trying to fool us into thinking it's a missile? Given even the Moscow Times is onto them and willing to publish what's the game plan?

They couldn't have known it'd blow up, so pre-planning was not possible.

If it is their game plan, it's worked 100% though, the media in the west is fully playing along with Russia it seems. The media seems to be unable to work towards what it really was at all.

It's hard to even see in the media if they launch space satellites from that location? Do you test rockets with a working satellites? Why isn't there a list of possibilities from the type of radiation? If it was a nuclear powered missile how does it land? Does it spew out radiation so it find-able anyway?

I guess cheap clicks regurgitating the Russians line and the Americans who's internal funding relies on Russian threats are the most cost effective.

But this should be solvable through open information and a little logic.
