Today is the anniversary of the first detonation of an atomic bomb, at the Alamogordo Bombing and Gunnery Range, New Mexico.

If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one. Now I am become Death, destroyer of worlds.

J. Robert Oppenheimer quoting the Bhagavad Gita
