After the death journey, scientists hung gadgets into corrugated steel sheds above a steel tower more than 30 meters high, and then untied the intertwined cables, which would detonate the high-explosive shell of the atomic bomb. It was thunder and lightning, and it was raining cats and dogs. They waited nervously outside all night. After they all retreated to a bunker 8.8 kilometers away, the detonation of atomic bomb gadgets began to officially enter the countdown.
1945, 16 At the dawn of July, the explosion triggered a nuclear chain reaction in the plutonium ball. Plutonium balls are not as big as spheres, but the explosive force generated is very huge and terrible. This power is equivalent to 19000 tons of TNT explosive. The high temperature produced by the 100 million-degree fireball melted the tower and fell directly on the ground and desert.
At that exciting moment, the green glass body was the least noticeable thing. It was not until the tourists who came to the scene later noticed that the glassy minerals around the shallow pit were irregularly scattered, so everyone present began to collect green glass fragments as souvenirs. Later, it was reported that the appearance of this green glass stone was very strange, with a thickness of only one centimeter, and foam and flaky green insects on the thin wall. No one knows what this kind of glass stone is called. Later, when people thought about the location of the exam, they decided to name it after a place name? Alamogordo glass? .
1946, Mechanical Illustrated also sold jewelry made of atomic melting glass where green glass stones were found. Many people are still worried about the danger of nuclear radiation. Later, experts reported that it is no longer dangerous unless you eat it. In 2005, scientist Robert Hermes and independent investigator William Strickfadden said that most minerals are formed by sand, which is sucked into fireballs and then falls like raindrops in the form of liquid.
