How do you destroy the world in eighty days?

The way you can destroy the world with nukes is to combine 17 trillion times the world's nuclear power, send them off to the moon, and speed them up to 1500 MPS while orbiting, then set a course for Earth. In other words, impossible.To destroy the Earth, like really destroy it, you need a an object twice the size of mars, made of iron, to crash into the earth. This would effectivey shatter the crust, shoot the mantle out into space, and make the core a new, miniture planetoid without an atmosphere.Planting 30 nukes in every country around the world. BOOOOM!!
