After dropping the atomic bomb

2
00:00:08,33 --> 00:00:12,15
but the twenty nine days dream
returns to his basic watch a lean

3
00:00:19,93 --> 00:00:25,04
not far behind the Air Force photographic
planes without film record one of the

4
00:00:25,04 --> 00:00:25,43
most amazing

5
00:00:25,43 --> 00:00:30,53
and spectacular events in the annals of
history cameras are removed from the planes

6
00:00:30,53 --> 00:00:34,85
and the exposed film bar where did the
photographic centers for processing

7
00:00:34,85 --> 00:00:40,58
and distribution.

8
00:00:50,28 --> 00:00:56,76
Be seventeen Air Force
drones landed and we docked.

9
00:01:02,55 --> 00:01:04,93
These planes guided to the
center of the cloud condom.

10
00:01:05,11 --> 00:01:09,43
Gathered radioactive dust particles in
large filter bags suspended from bomb

11
00:01:09,43 --> 00:01:14,06
Reich's the deadly radioactive dust bags
are removed and carried to laboratories

12
00:01:14,06 --> 00:01:15,07
but testing

13
00:01:15,07 --> 00:01:21,41
and analyzing the Navy

14
00:01:21,42 --> 00:01:26,68
and six F. Drones flown back from bikini
by Mother control lines for their land

15
00:01:26,68 --> 00:01:27,50
and rowing island

16
00:01:33,15 --> 00:01:34,19
when the drones near the ground

17
00:01:34,19 --> 00:01:38,46
and air controllers switched to the
ground control officer at the edge of the

18
00:01:38,46 --> 00:01:41,08
flight strip lands the pilot less aircraft

19
00:01:50,43 --> 00:01:55,24
like the Air Force drones the Navy fighters
carried air scoop containing special

00:01:55,24 --> 00:01:59,85
builder Weber's body turning the
concentration of radioactivity in the cloud.

21
00:02:00,00 --> 00:02:03,06
Com.

22
00:02:06,44 --> 00:02:11,21
Crews removing the dangerously radioactive
materials by carefully indoctrinated in

23
00:02:11,21 --> 00:02:15,37
the procedure of handling such objects
in order to avoid lethal burns from the

24
00:02:15,37 --> 00:02:17,27
fission products deadly gamma

25
00:02:17,27 --> 00:02:23,36
and beta rays.

26
00:02:25,17 --> 00:02:29,82
While at Bikini inspection Friday make a
preliminary appraisal of the damage to the

27
00:02:29,82 --> 00:02:34,04
target fleet burning from fires
started by the low order detonation

28
00:02:34,04 --> 00:02:34,90
and got to work

29
00:02:34,90 --> 00:02:41,37
and is the aircraft carrier independent
the light carrier was heavily damaged the

30
00:02:41,38 --> 00:02:43,21
blast struck the ship on the port quarter.

31
00:02:43,36 --> 00:02:48,31
What carried away my plating and
pushed up the flight deck so

32
00:02:48,31 --> 00:02:53,54
that it looked like a rooftop the independence
class carriers are built on lightly

33
00:02:53,54 --> 00:02:57,29
constructed cruiser type
like accounts in pride

34
00:02:57,29 --> 00:03:30,69
but I haven't done the

35
00:03:30,70 --> 00:03:35,61
aircraft carrier Saratoga was undamaged
except for a small fire in surprised

36
00:03:35,61 --> 00:03:53,93
or a

37
00:03:53,94 --> 00:03:55,83
battleship Nevada Target Chip

38
00:03:55,83 --> 00:04:00,38
or the array Socred moderate superstructure
damage on the deck at. It was buckled.

39
00:04:00,69 --> 00:04:03,16
But paint on one side was scorched

40
00:04:03,16 --> 00:04:04,29
but did not burn

41
00:04:14,03 --> 00:04:15,71
that area between the test table

42
00:04:15,71 --> 00:04:19,06
and test maker experiments
was an extremely busy one.

43
00:04:19,23 --> 00:04:21,50
Your name's times good making detailed

44
00:04:21,50 --> 00:04:26,08
and comprehensive inspections recording
data and rewriting the entire time

45
00:04:26,08 --> 00:04:31,77
that we put the underwater test was
completed during this time by said no bland

46
00:04:31,77 --> 00:04:34,25
able to run direct to speaking to the.

47
00:04:34,83 --> 00:04:39,84
Bikini during the friendly visit the
admiral presented King today with several

48
00:04:39,84 --> 00:04:46,25
guests at sea aboard the
aircraft carrier state

49
00:04:46,25 --> 00:04:50,34
or a naval boat a graphic artist
brief the photographic plane pilots

50
00:04:50,34 --> 00:04:56,90
and lens experts will photograph
the baker day blacks.

51
00:05:11,34 --> 00:05:14,15
Also taking off from the
carrier controlled planes

52
00:05:14,15 --> 00:05:17,17
that will guide the radio controlled boat

53
00:05:22,41 --> 00:05:26,77
in bikini lagoon radiological reconnaissance
boats directed from low flying

54
00:05:26,77 --> 00:05:32,41
aircraft will be used as safety patrol
vessels immediately after the blast these

55
00:05:32,42 --> 00:05:36,69
drone boats equipped with special instruments
to record radio activity will be

56
00:05:36,69 --> 00:05:40,01
guided to the target area that
captures circles of water

57
00:05:40,01 --> 00:05:45,72
and they're determining the concentration
of deadly radioactive particles is of the

58
00:05:45,72 --> 00:05:51,43
utmost importance. Since invisible gamma
and beta rays kill without warning.

59
00:06:05,02 --> 00:06:09,68
Aboard the firing here at us as Cumberland
sound the Los Alamos group of the

60
00:06:09,68 --> 00:06:13,53
Manhattan engineer district enter the
timing laboratory where the radio

61
00:06:13,53 --> 00:06:14,22
transmitters

62
00:06:14,22 --> 00:06:21,28
and specially constructed instruments
for detonating the bomb are located.

63
00:06:22,10 --> 00:06:25,57
The timing laboratory scientists
pass into the master control room.

64
00:06:27,60 --> 00:06:32,45
Dr Marshall Holloway leader of the Los
Alamos built on NOTS in personally throws

65
00:06:32,45 --> 00:06:37,69
one of the master transmitters which is.

66
00:06:40,61 --> 00:06:46,15
The timing laboratory is a complex interlocking
system of radio transmitters timing

67
00:06:46,15 --> 00:06:48,25
recorders and scientific apparatus.

68
00:06:49,89 --> 00:06:55,40
As eight hour approaches generators are
started translators warmed up read cards on

69
00:06:55,40 --> 00:06:56,67
time recorders changed

70
00:06:56,67 --> 00:07:07,32
and everything made ready for the last.

71
00:07:09,65 --> 00:07:12,82
Eight hours. Minus two minutes
is broadcast from the hip

72
00:07:12,82 --> 00:07:18,99
and all hands stand by sitting at the central
console switchboard with a microphone

73
00:07:18,99 --> 00:07:23,51
is Dr unattended an
assistant to Dr Holloway.

74
00:07:23,53 --> 00:07:26,05
As he announces a tower
minus thirty seconds.

75
00:07:26,23 --> 00:07:28,45
Dr Holloway throws the thirty seconds

76
00:07:28,45 --> 00:07:35,57
when.

77
00:07:39,80 --> 00:07:43,89
The get in at the automatic firing panel
board prepares to broadcast the last bit

78
00:07:43,89 --> 00:07:51,55
beam seconds.

79
00:07:57,22 --> 00:07:59,43
Five or three.

80
00:08:00,00 --> 00:08:02,73
To one find

81
00:09:06,22 --> 00:09:10,50
these pictures of the descending water
economy show the expanding crowd of spray

82
00:09:10,50 --> 00:09:14,90
and fog at the base of the column moving
outward uncovering the ships in the target

83
00:09:14,90 --> 00:09:19,98
or a great quantities of radioactive water
from the condom descended upon the decks

84
00:09:19,98 --> 00:09:21,10
of the nearby that's rose

85
00:09:21,10 --> 00:09:27,14
and hippos a mile away were granted by
the wall of foaming water this world of

86
00:09:27,14 --> 00:09:31,24
people spray and fog eventually
covered the entire target fleet.

87
00:10:03,84 --> 00:10:08,36
The next scene is a spectacular aerial
view taken from directly over the blast.

88
00:10:35,34 --> 00:10:54,68
Here is one of the drone airplanes flying
over the target fleet after the last.

89
00:10:55,84 --> 00:10:57,87
Photographic planes returned from bikini

90
00:10:57,87 --> 00:11:23,69
and land on their voting
bases it's the cameras

91
00:11:23,70 --> 00:11:24,35
are removed

92
00:11:24,35 --> 00:11:28,30
and the exposed film forwarded to the Naval
photographic Center in Washington D.C.

93
00:11:28,30 --> 00:11:35,02
For processing despite the

94
00:11:35,02 --> 00:11:39,63
presence of radioactivity safety patrols
immediately enter the lagoon for a

95
00:11:39,63 --> 00:11:44,20
preliminary appraisal of the damage in an
effort to reduce dangerous contamination

96
00:11:44,20 --> 00:11:47,67
ships were sprayed with water
and special kind of goes so

97
00:11:47,67 --> 00:11:49,66
that inspection process could board them.

98
00:12:30,00 --> 00:12:30,43
That is Troy

99
00:12:30,43 --> 00:12:36,47
and you lose all ruptured by the last
action was based on a new island in sinking

100
00:12:36,47 --> 00:12:36,98
condition.

101
00:12:46,47 --> 00:12:50,93
No blandly general Kepner and Admiral
Parsons survey the damage in the target

102
00:12:50,93 --> 00:12:57,59
or a goal here is the Japanese battleship
in a Gato which flooded in capsized

103
00:12:57,59 --> 00:12:59,17
five days after the plant

104
00:13:10,36 --> 00:13:10,66
seven

105
00:13:10,67 --> 00:13:15,72
and a half hours after the explosion the
aircraft carrier Saratoga a grand old fighting

106
00:13:15,72 --> 00:13:21,74
lady signed as a result of
having underwater hold and.

107
00:13:21,75 --> 00:13:23,57
It must be remembered

108
00:13:23,57 --> 00:13:29,96
that the primary purpose of the bikini
experiments was to secure precise technical

109
00:13:29,96 --> 00:13:34,88
information which will be used to
determine necessary changes in the design

110
00:13:34,88 --> 00:13:40,25
and construction of military
equipment and especially maybe

111
00:13:40,25 --> 00:13:46,72
that old required to maintain your
navy at maximum effectiveness.

112
00:13:46,74 --> 00:13:51,85
We must be fully prepared to protect
our national security promptly

113
00:13:52,56 --> 00:13:55,28
and affectively in the other
and that we are attacked.

114
00:13:56,48 --> 00:14:00,82
We must defend ourselves against
this new and elemental boy

115
00:14:01,81 --> 00:14:12,87
or be destroyed by this

116
00:14:13,97 --> 00:14:15,15
is crossroads.
