I'm sniffing my keyboard as I type.
Anyway, regarding your original question -
1. Based on current theory, a 50 MT nuke would have est. 3 mile "total
kill" (vaporization) blast radius in outer space.
2. The exloding debris, travelling at fast relative velocity, would
probably shread ships parked nearby.
Consider, a small ball bearing travelling at typical orbit velocity (Earth)
can punch a hole right through an armored satellite skin.
