Fat Man bomb dimensions • Length: 10 feet 8 inches (3.25 m) • Diameter: 60 inches (1.52 m) (4898.8 kg) • Weight: 10,800 pounds • Yield: 20 kilotons • Robert Oppenheimer was the center of putting this bomb together with other scientists. They made two different kinds of bombs. The Fat Man bomb was a more complicated and powerful implosion weapon using plutonium. • The plutonium for this bomb came from Hanford, Washington from the Manhattan Project. Hanford Site became the home for nuclear reactors which produced a new man made element called plutonium. • They made a test bomb, code name “Gadget,” 19-kiloton explosion was the first nuclear weapon plutonium implosion device. It was created, and detonated successfully in the Trinity test at Alamogordo, NM, demonstrating that the Fat Man atomic bomb design will work. The plutonium core to the bomb was assembled in the McDonald ranch house. You will see this model of the original Fat Man bomb, on loan from the National Atomic Museum in Albuquerque, NM. It is featured at each open house of Trinity Site on the first Saturdays in April and in October. The Trinity Site is 120 miles south of Santa Fe, not far from where this bomb casing sits in the White Sands Missile Range. • First mushroom cloud of searing light stretched 40,000 feet into the air and generated the destructive power of 15,000 to 20,000 tons of TNT. That could of powered 2,113 average homes for a year in electrical power. Talk about man made global warming. The tower on which the bomb sat when detonated was vaporized. • Now that they knew it worked the USA decided that they needed to use it on Japan. Fat Man was the second nuclear weapon used in warfare. It was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan on August 9, 1945. Just to compare it to a city in the USA I chose Chicago to demonstrate the blast radius. Estimated fatalities: 163,110 Estimated injuries: 203,820. Just think theses are tiny compared today's bombs of hydrogen. • Soviet Union conducted the largest thermonuclear weapons test in history, the “Tsar Bomba”, with a yield of 50 megatons. The force of the blast was so great that the shockwave circled around the world three times, and broke windows as far away as Finland. I’m showing it here at 100 megaton russa’s largest bomb that is known. We have the Estimated fatalities: at 3,136,100 and Estimated injuries: 3,448,740.. As you can see that’s not including the radiation deaths days later. The explosion’s intense light and heat set wood and other combustible materials afire at a range of many miles away so that would also be a concern. Contaminated food and water can kill you as you keep adsorbing more and more radiation. • • Getting back to spring 1945, many cases of bomb parts, were shipped to Island of Tinian. This place the USA had taken from the Japanese to build a giant base. After the island was secured Navy SeaBees construction battalions began bulldozing in mere days. Six runways were completed within two months and Tinian soon became the biggest air base in the world. • Tinian is less than forty square miles in size and located approximately 1,500 miles south of Tokyo. North Field consisted of four airfields and supported 269 B-29s. The round-trip flight from Tinian to Tokyo took B-29s an average of twelve hours. • Thank-you for all your comments and viewing the video.
