1945-1998

I just watched a most sobering video. It will likely make you feel the same way.

Approaching the sounds a Simon game would make - on acid - or a really pissed-off mother ship from Close Encounters, the following video depicts every atomic explosion from 1945 to 1998:

The first explosion is from the Manhattan Project, the next two are from Nagasaki and Hiroshima.

Then, a metronome-like blip is heard, counting off each month, with a special blip denoting each passing year.

Then come the country blips. The sobering country blips.

The video runs 14 ½ minutes, counting off all 2053 atomic tests and explosions worldwide.

Please share it with your family and friends.
