At 5:29:45 am on July 16th, 2005, a simulation of the first atomic nuclear explosion was undertaken somewhere in the Nevada desert. The simulation was a 1/10,000 scale of the Trinity nuclear test detonated exactly 60 years ago, using some 400 gallons of biodiesel. The simulation is meant as a somber reminder of the destructive power of nuclear weapons.
