Disastrous

"Little Boy"

"Fat Man"

Billy and I toured the Bradbury Science Museum in Los Alamos, NM, in the summer of '98. "Little Boy" and "Fat Man" are replicas of bombs dropped on Hiroshima (August 6, 1945) and Nagasaki (August 9, 1945). Testing of these bombs occurred on July 16, 1945, at White Sands, NM, which we also visited.

Interesting Photo Friday choice. It's something that can be so "cool" to look at in a museum, but when you're told of its history, disastrous is the only adjective that can be associated with them.
