      Marinara Trench would be a catchy Italian restaurant name

    A 1km bubble is pretty impressive

    Does that not create any short lived very exotic physic/particle/pressure situation?

    I suppose anything living close to the explosion might find the impact pretty dramatic. The effect on marine life would be comparable with dynamite fishing, but on a much larger scale.
