    For anyone wondering how glass protects from radiation: Polarization has nothing to do with it. What he claimed was that he did the math and realized that a sheet of glass would block enough UV that he could safely see the bomb without eye protection.
    The brightness can still be damaging (as anyone who deals with high power lasers will warn you), but apparently at that distance, it would not be permanent.
    He reportedly saw everything purple for hours afterward, including the after-image of the fireball, similarly to what happens after you go to the ophthalmologist and they shine a bright light right into your retina. 💡

    My interpretation is that the glass is teaching him about particles, atoms, and what would happen if those bonds received the right energy needed to spilt and what that would look like physically.
    He's doing it over and over to see if there's any difference visually when throwing with different levels of force.
    Smaller shards show him the success of a split. Larger shards show he needs more energy/force to make smaller shards and truly split the bonds. Seeing the broken pieces spread out shows him that matter, when split, the particles spread and continue to split, like a wave. Like a blast wave from a nuke.

      @lion_2ooo_ita867 🤣 I have no PHD in this subject. Any proper scientists who are physicists are welcome to correct me. But I'm just guessing Nolan wanted us to see what splitting atoms look like. Because "Theory can only take you so far." Once you see the results of that theory, from seeing it physically, through a practical process, you understand it better. I appreciate the compliment.

    Born-Oppenheimer approximation. Electronic transitions occur so quickly that the nuclei do not have time to move. The glass breaking represents energy traveling through a material. The fracture pattern is related to the crystal structure i.e. nuclei location. If you look at the breaks they go for long sections in a straight line then deviate. The idea is at the point of deviation is a nuclei. So the energy is significantly faster because the nuclei don't move out of the way. Therefore to this day we use the Born-Oppehiemer approximation to cut out all changes in nuclear coordinates to simplify solving the Hamiltonian for computational analysis. Then the nuclear coordinates can relax to the new electronic state or treat changes to nuclear coordinates as pertubations. Either way it will reduce the complexity of the calculation by multiple orders of magnitudes.

    He was visualizing the glass as he was most likely a visual learner and needed something for his brain to visualize as something else.

    Glass clip my guess fission. Sorta resemble the neutrons splitting then being made smaller neutrons. Glass is still glass when it breaks but how many times will it break before stopping. If it doesn't stop, it ignites the atmosphere. So the glass is like the neutral splitting. Remember start of movie said fission and the glimpses are like fission

      He was trying to find a pattern in a task with billions of possibilities. He wanted to know if the glass shattering is as chaotic as it is, or there can be an explanation, and possibly, control, over the glass particles. In his mind, he was trying to find a solution to "control". He was asking himself: Is there a way to know how much of the glasses remain after shattering? One of the biggest questions he should have been able to answer was: Will a nuclear bomb destroy the atmosphere in a chain reaction? Or will it stop at a certain point? The scene is an over exaggeration of his mind. He had not yet faced that question then, but the question was asked at the beginning of the movie.
