The Trinity Test (Encore)

On July 16, 1945, at 5:29 am, 35 miles southwest of Socorro, New Mexico, the world’s first nuclear bomb was detonated. This was the culmination of the Manhattan Project, one of the largest and most expensive programs in world history. Yet, just before the event, the scientists and engineers who worked on the project weren’t entirely sure it would work and, if it did, just what the results would be.
