Interesting clip. History is amazing when you have all the pieces.  Makes you wonder about all the other undiscovered mysteries.

Light is free… capturing it is not!

I find it odd that the US government didn't think about the fallout that would take place from dropping that bomb.  

So why did it take the professor 4 years to publish his findings?  I wonder if he was 'hushed' by the government?

They weren't worried about the fallout, and had our enemies developed the bomb first do you think they would have cared? Four years isn't that long to publish a report either, and there was probably some gubmint push back....

Why so serious?

Pretty nasty stuff there.   What I find interesting is how many folks were effected from the fall out and picked up some sort of cancer from that.  Better yet, consider that question globally where you have countries that do nuke testing in mountains or wherever they feel like it.  No need for huge bombs like these.
