- I had uploaded a shorter version of this video earlier and deleted it. That video resurfaced on another RUclips-account. Someone appears to have downloaded it and uploaded it by himself: • Video
The first two are the Mohawk shot from Operation Redwing, 1956 (0:05) and Operation Snapper, 1952 (0:15). After that following Operation Ranger, 1951 (0:22), Ivy Mike, 1952 (0:28), Trinity Test, 1945 (0:39), Tsar Bomb, 1961 (0:44), First Lightning, 1949 (0:48), Greenhouse George, 1951 (0:55) and Castle Bravo, 1954 (1:01).
Taken with a Rapatronic camera, combined into moving images.

Others shot with an O'Brien camera, developed by Brian O'Brien

en.wikipedia.or...
The photograph was shot by a Rapatronic camera built by EG&G. Since each camera could record only one exposure on a sheet of film, banks of four to 10 cameras were set up to take sequences of photographs. The average exposure time was three millionths of a second. The cameras were last used at the Test Site in 1962.
The images shows the growing fireball, taken about one millisecond after detonation. There are two striking features about this picture - the spikes projecting from the bottom of the fireball, and the ghostly mottling of the fireball surface.
The peculiar spikes are extensions of the fireball surface along ropes or cables that stretch from the shot cab (the housing for the test device at the top of the tower) to the ground. This novel phenomenon was named a "rope trick" by Dr. John Malik who investigated it. The effect had been observed in earlier tests when spikes were seen extending along cables that moored the shot towers to the ground. During Snapper Malik conducted experiments using different kinds of cables and ropes, and with different surface treatments. Consequently the spikes in this picture may be due to either mooring cables, or Malik's own test ropes.
The cause of the "rope trick" is the absorption of thermal radiation from the fireball by the rope. The fireball is still extremely hot (surface temperature around 20,000 degrees K at this point, some three and a half times hotter than the surface of the sun; at the center it may be more than ten times hotter) and radiates a tremendous amount of energy as visible light (intensity over 100 times greater than the sun) to which air is (surprise!) completely transparent. The rope is not transparent however, and the section of rope extending from the fireball surface gets rapidly heated to very high temperatures. The luminous vaporized rope rapidly expands and forms a spike-shaped extension of the fireball. Malik observed that if the rope was painted black spike formation was enhanced, and if it was painted with reflective paint or wrapped in aluminum foil no spikes were observed.
Cause of the surface mottling. At this point in the explosion, a true hydrodynamic shock front has just formed. Prior to this moment the growth of the fireball was due to radiative transport, i.e. thermal x-rays outran the expanding bomb debris. Now however the fireball expansion is caused by the shock front driven by hydrodynamic pressure (as in a conventional explosion, only far more intense). The glowing surface of the fireball is due to shock compression heating of the air. This means that the fireball is now growing far more slowly than before. The bomb (and shot cab) vapors were initially accelerated to very high velocities (several tens of kilometers/sec) and clumps of this material are now splashing against the back of the shock front in an irregular pattern (due to initial variations in mass distribution around the bomb core), creating the curious mottled appearance.
Now I fell stupid for being amazed by 5000 FPS videos on youtube. 15 million FPS in 1945? Thats beyond genius.
They can grab that fast, but only one frame. They ganged them together in groups of 6 cameras with different timings to crate a "stop-motion" movie, as Shatner describes.
smolkafilip they created an atomic boom in 1945 i find that more incredible
And France transmitted some footage as a test in 1080p way back in the 70s
Andy Stephenson Didnt know that. Could you share a link please?
***** Yeah, thats true. But nobody was surprised by the atom, we knew that happened and nobody is amazed by it today, it was so common that it had to be banned. But 15 000 000 FPS? That is amazing even by todays standards of technology.
15 million frames per second in the 1940s that's more impressive than a nuclear explosion...... fuck !
Agreed. Military always had and still have the best toys. And this is only tip of an iceberg. This is just a declassified tech.
Think for a moment about what cool stuff is still classified/hidden.
oldi184 they probably have vaporization guns, or maybe even hovertanks, airships, and more....
Dman here's hoping Donald Trump keep his mouth shut when he sees jaw dropping weapons and hopefully we'll see them in the coming war with China........... watch out China.
Anthony Mullen he'll tweet it out... and will probably be the cause for ww3, or the next stock market crash, plummeting the Us economy down the drain. And I'll be here in Canada judt thinking "What the fuck were you guys thinking to elect this bafoon, and have an even worse runner up that would've done just as bad as a job as him? (Hilary Clinton)"
Dman personally I think with a tragedy when Joe Biden didn't run for the presidency I think he would have beaten trump hands down ,oh ,well just keep your Pantry well supplied, fingers crossed that hope for the best.✌
It seems pretty consistent that the most beautiful objects in the world are the most deadly; atomic bomb explosions, sharks, jellyfish, poison arrow frogs.... Sicilian women.
Most people couldn't point out Sicily on a map.
You mean USA residents......
Come on man! Its the rock that the boot is kicking.
Actually, you're right. At least here in the US most are stupid with finding their way around a map. I had to correct someone the other day who thought it was possible to drive to Hawaii!
My thoughts exactly! These problems didn't exist 20 yrs ago except for the inner city. I don't understand why people get upset for speaking the truth. So many are in denial of these issues.You gotta be blind not to see it! A loose nuke will go off in one of our cities, I've worried about this for some time since I spend my work days in the center of DC.
What the hell?!?! My little joke turns into a platform for social commentary?!?! Pull the twist out of your panties, man.
For anyone who wants to know. The "jets" that you see preceding the main fireball are the guy wires of the tower being vaporized by the initial burst of x-rays. Because x-rays travel at the speed of light, the guy wires are vaporized before the main fireball reaches them.
You're right about this effect, called a rope trick, except it's not the x-rays that are doing it - it's the light pulse, which is also the "thermal pulse", the radiation that burns the paint off of surfaces and causes fires before the blast gets there. The wires are absorbing the light and converting it to heat, and vaporizing. The x-rays don't get more than a small distance from the bomb before they are absorbed by the atmosphere, creating the blast wave.
puncheex2 Xrays and light photons are the same thing as are gamma rays. The only difference in the name is what they are generated from.
Sorta. They blend into each other on the EM scale, but there are generally accepted frequency limits for each which are mutually exclusive. That's not just a semantic convenience; they have different properties based on their frequency/wavelength. For example, apropos to this, light finds air transparent, but x-rays and gamma rays do not. And it is the thermal pulse that fries the guy wires, not the x-rays which are creating the fireball, for just that reason.
Amazing knowing what they were tasked with, in simply comprehending their program alone.
I've been wondering about this for years!!! I've always asked, "what are those wierd streamer chemtrail things?"
That's what it is. It is bubbles of incandescent air and vaporized shed and bomb casing, being inflated and heated by soft x-rays. It's moving outwards at supersonic speeds; when it slows down a little it will become the blast shockwave.
0:22 That sphere consuming the tower and vaporizing it's support cables is mesmerizing to terrifying to watch
As is watching the coyote go over the cliff on a Looney Tunes cartoon.
@@mariana1964 YES! YOU KNOW!!
@@mariana1964 a simple mind
How bad could it be to get vaporized by an atomic bomb?
It’s crazy too because it shows how energy travels fastest through denser materials hence why part of the fireball extends away from the main part of the fireball which is in the location of the support wires
The "spikes" that can be seen on the outside of the fireball are likely the cables supporting the towers upon which the bombs were tested. The heat from the reaction probably vaporized them into an (extremely) incandescent gas ahead of the fireball surface. The fact that we are capable of filming such events is nothing short of incredible. Nowadays it's possible to film the actual progression of a beam of light, which makes these 1,000,000+ FPS clips look like some Charlie Chaplin shit.
Given the state of tech at the time those cameras and footage have always amazed me. It had to be a huge project in itself to engineer those cameras.
The mottled looking fireball is fucking wild, I wonder if those are temp differences from the initial density conditions of the bomb/shot cab that are expanded and carried outwards.
The way the energy seems to travel down the towers guide wire is amazing as well. The times scales are so mind boggling fast there's no way we would have known about those effects without those cameras.
"I wonder if those are temp differences from the initial density
conditions of the bomb/shot cab that are expanded and carried outwards." I think you are right
Chris Barth it's actually the initial burst of radiation vaporizing the guy cables. That's why it precedes the fireball, because the effect propagated at light speed.
I think Bethe writes about how the initial radiation is invisible gamma and x-rays, and that the fireball has to cool down before it becomes visible. It's a fucked-up weapon, but the physics and the numbers never cease to amaze me...
Zanichbug Since this video I took a "deep dive" into what I could find online about nukes. You are right, it's a fucked up weapon but yeah, the physics are mindblowing. I would have gave my left nut to have worked in the one of the labs/field back in the heyday. With the basically unlimited budgets funding R&D for weapon development and all the new physics being explored it had to be some heady times, frightening as well.
I wish I remember where I saw it but there is a unclassified, published picture online of the "first light" of a bomb. The camera was trained onto the physics package through a window opening in the shot cab. The radation/light was visible but hadn't even disturbed the shot cab yet. I'm sure there are much better images that are locked away in some classified vault but the image I saw was amazing. The variables to get those images has to be a science in it self.
+Zanichbug well no, it's not like this..but it's too long to write here and now....just be aware that, in short, it's not the fireball that "has to cool down", but the fireball itself that is "a byproduct" of gamma and x rays hitting the casing of the warhead and the surrounding air
In his 1914 science fiction novel The World Set Free, H.G. Wells described the slow-acting fireball of his "Carolinium" based atomic bomb as "a disease of matter". The individual frames from these time-lapse films of actual atomic fireballs look just like that literary description.
Man. Thats crazy
It's as if Wells wrote the script!
For something so terrifying and destructive it’s very beautiful
It's like making a sun for 2 seconds

Look at all the internet Nuclear Physicist.

So, are you an ACTUAL one?
@Eye_Dee Thank you
@@Bacony_Cakes No, but i play one on TV
it looks like a mini sun, which i think it is
no its not
This type of bomb still used fission, but i can see the parallel you and puling. If it was a fusion bomb your comparison would be more accurate, though any sun would of long exploded before it could ever get close to producing elements such as U238! xD Stars explode once they start creating Fe through fusion, even a relevantly small amount of Fe in a stars core is VERY bad news for a star. However, much of what you see will be plasma, which is what a star consists of, due to the sheer heat in the first few moments of a nuclear explosion, so again your comparison is still a fair parallel.
Remember that a star doesn't need a fission explosion in order to set off the fusion reaction itself. The hydrogen fusion is basically the same as in a star, there's just way way less of it (no chance of a sustained reaction, which in fairness is probably a good thing).
my butt is a mini sun
@@VaeVictisXIII there was a clip of Ivy Mike, the first thermonuclear bomb tested. Though all thermonuclear (hydrogen) bombs still require a fission primary and spark plug to implode, ignite, and sandwich the secondary containing the fusion fuel. Most thermonuclear tampers were also composed of U-238 or Th-232, which are fissionable from the 14.1 MeV fusion neutrons, but not fissile. Yet their reactions contribute exorbitant amounts of energy to the total bomb yield because of the high number of D-T fusion neutrons produced that undergo collisions in the tamper - along with the fact that each one can cause several fissions in the tamper material before running out of energy. In some cases the fissionable tamper contributes 75% of the total bomb energy.
Some bombs like the Tsar bomb have used lead tampers to reduce the amount of fallout produced. The Tsar bomb had a 97% or 98% yield from fusion alone and is the closest thing to the sun imploding on itself in our atmosphere.
That is amazing!
It looks like a universe forming.
A universe that exists for only moments before collapsing on itself.
But our perception is based upon scale, so that "universe", if it had existed at all, could have existed for trillions of years, but on our scale, it was only a matter of miliseconds.
@@lordkrythic6246 It is just changes in the rate of electromagnetic attenuation and transmission of plasmas and ionized air, combined with the thermal EM emissions of the hot gases.
It all starts "white" because all you can see is the outside of the hot plasma/ion ball.
It becomes "clear" because the ions recombine, making it possible for light to transmit through.
This doesn't happen evenly, hence you get "bubbles" of hotter, cooler, more or less radio-opaque, and more or less ionized material forming in the first few instants of the blast.
Christopher Nolan was here
We couldve had the PS6 back then if the military had its priorities straight

check out the brief appearence of the evil rabbit from Donny Darko at 00:57.
Thats some observation bro !
Mark Page 0:58, Rocko's modern life rabbit boss.
Wow! Yeah that’s crazy.
Damn so Oppenheimer even got this right. The accuracy of that movie, despite it not even being a documentary is incredible.
I think the fact it was done without cgi is immensely more impressive
Most amazing photo I ever saw was a photo of an atomic bomb explosion after detonation but *before* it had vaporized the shack containing it. The shack was fluorescing (sp?) from the gamma rays released by the explosion.
One survivor said the light was so bright he could see the bones in his fingers, makes sense now.
Man-made destruction and death. It's actually beautiful, the colors and shapes....not the purpose.
I feel gutted that Nolan teased us with the fireball in the trailer. But nuke test in the movie felt underwhelming to look at. Although it did sound amazing.
Yep
I think Nolan should have used the original trinity footage instead and enhanced it a bit with a touch of cgi.
@@just.another.nobody.843 yeah I get what he was trying to do. Trying to get us to feel the intensity with practical effects, but I don't think that's gonna happen without actually blowing up an atomic bomb hahah.
@@macfurrywong8108 The close up shots do look fine actually, but the rest make the bomb look small
@@just.another.nobody.843 yeah i guess most of it is going from memory. But overall i definitely didnt feel the awe and terrifying destruction an atomic bomb going off would feel like. Definitely not as much as the real footages.
Reminds me of a supernova

Because it is, but much smaller and life of this 'artificial star' is very unstable and short.
Bart M it’s not...
Nuclear bomb = baby sun
No...it's not
nuclear bomb = father sun
Even modern thermonuclear weapons are not purely fusion powered. They use fission reactions to create the temperatures and pressures needed to initiate fusion, which then boosts the yield of the weapon tremendously.
***** Fair point. I'll take out "modern" from the statement.
+Ignition Gaming Observers descibed the Trinity test as "brighter than the sun".
You're right. 6 tele-rapatronic cameras are making pictures in sequence each in intervalls of around 10 nanoseconds. This for the duration of one microsecond. The approx. 600 pics have then been cut & assembled to create a short 25 FPS movie (24 seconds in total). 1 microsecond has been stretched to 24 seconds. For one millisecond the duration of the movie would be 6.6 hours :)
So this is one microsecond? That's incredible.
looks like we're peering into another Universe
You think its amazing to see 200 000 FPS from slow mo guys. But in 1945 they had 15M FPS on 35mm film (which is almost like 4K digital).
Guy at the end sounds like Joe Pesci
yep
No the fuck he doesn't how has it been since you've seen a joe Pesci movie
he sounds like a transvestite
He does sound like Joe Pepsi.
No... He did NOT sound at all like Joe Pesci. A clear difference in the two voices
This is the most amazing thing I have ever seen. And this rapatronic camera is from the 40s?!
To me, these fireballs look like the CMB and miniature versions of the current universe. Could this possibly be a way to physically study the structure of the Big Bang?
No
This is disturbingly beautiful.
0:57 For a brief moments, you can clearly see a face there. Truly horrifying, just like in Asimov's "Hell-fire"
It looks like the pickle chin ah boy kid
@ChadGamingTv middle
Imagine if they invented these 15 million fps cameras to capture the first moments of a nuclear bomb but when they got the footage it was all overexposed 😂
What I want to know is how any of this got on film in such detail. I'd have thought the X-rays and the heat not to mention the blast energy didn't affect the negatives. Cleanup workers at Chernobyl that took pics had some really lousy image quality due to the radiation messing with the film itself.
That entire blub in the video description didn't even mention that this was taken from another source, while still complaining that someone else uploaded it.Like it was from your own personal film stock or something.
There's a reason certain buildings were not destroyed. Many of them that were not destroyed had large windows, these windows meant that the buildings provided little resistance. Also, a 17KT bomb doesn't generate pressures as high as the massive bombs like the Tsar Bomb.
Can’t wait for the new Oppenheimer movie to come out 2023!!
It's unbelievable how you can make out the profiles of the explosive lenses in some of the footage.
If they had that in 1945, imagine what is available now that we don't know about.
Regardless of positions and "Sides" these pictures and videos are incredible; not only their ability capturing such events but, the events, as stand-alone events, are awe-inspiring. The brilliance, imagination, determination, dedication, respect for those designing, plus the physical Devices, rates amongst Mankind's highest achievements! This is brilliance. Creating a perfect sphere, a singularity, harnessing the power of the atom(s) and the massive undertakings from Oak Ridge to Los Alamos, the hours and centrifuges creating SOB (U335) from natural Uranium Ore separated from Pitchblend! That's so awesome! I appreciate the negatives and the consequences learned, hopefully in-full.
Of course, I feel sorrow towards those injured or killed via this technology. Especially the Natives removed and generations suffering increased birth defects & cancer rates, and the tragedy of The "Lucky Dragon № 9" with 23 fishermen sickened, and one fatality, from ARP, Accidental, but nonetheless sad and tragic. However, those opposed to these Marvelous Creations need to ask about the lives saved by Nuclear Medicine? The power generation, with no pollution {relative to other MAJOR International Sources. Happy debating this elsewhere} and increased standards of living? The Solar System explored, especially the semi-recent Saturn pictures and data obtained thanks to Cassini. Plutonium provided the power, and plutonium doesn't grown on trees. Those beautiful photographs inspire and will inspire many future scientists, help formulate a better picture of our Galaxy, and understanding of the Universe [or Multi-Verse😁]
What this captures is amazing and shows what a Nation can do in times of tremendous peril. At least, what we could do. We're too selfish and immature to do so now...

@@indeedDE01 Einfach vor 7 Jahren
Some people say that the explosion in Oppenheimer was a little underwhelming. I agree to an extent.
The circular fireball can only be observed through the 15 million fps camera. They do show some shots of the circular explosion, but it's very sparse and near the beginning of the movie.
He was intentionally using that footage sparingly to give footage of a real timed explosion. At the same speed everyone at the Trinity test saw with their own eyes.
Actually most of the energy released in a hydrogen bomb comes from fast fission of the U238 tamper. This supplied over 75% of the yield in shots such as Ivy Mike and Castle Bravo. The fusion from the Lithium isotopes produced a large neutron flux which nearly completely fissioned the entire tamper (U238 atoms can only be split by fast neutrons created in thermonuclear explosions). Tsar Bomba replaced this U238 casing with lead, which cut the designed yield in half, from 100MT to about 50.
That is exactly right. Are you a physics student or did you just read that from the internet? Nice collar, btw
Depends on the design. If they used fissionable tamper like uranium then a large fraction of the bombs energy will come from fission. This are called "dirty bomb". However if they used non fissionable tamper like lead or gold then most of its energy would come from fusion. For example in Ripple II bomb denoted in housatonic test 99.9% of the energy came from fusion.
@@aorchotikamaybe, but is he also the cat's meow? Sorry, sorry, I am so... exhausted. Must sleep now...
I think this is by far the best comment I read here on RUclips during the last month or so.
P.S. I really don't remember much further into the past, therefore I typed here "... the last month or so." :-D
So those cameras were filming at *15 MILLION FRAMES PER SECOND??!!* that’s faster than most cameras today. It’s nice seeing a huge fireball hotter than the surface of our sun at 15 million FPS.
Combined
Oppenheimer really got it down so realistic damn
Yeah, I think using practical over CGI made it a lot more realistic and believable, because the explosion for the movie actually happened. versus CGI which can't capture the scale of what a real explosion looks like, especially to watch in IMAX. I am just jealous for everyone who actually got to see the explosion in real life.
I want to see how the camera is protected! How thick the lens/protective cover is, ect.
In the hydrogen bomb (fusion device), the heat given off by a fission explosion is directed at a container of fusible hydrogen (deuterium). The heat and pressure causes the hydrogen to fuse into helium, the same process that takes place in the Sun and stars. This reaction produces an incredible amount of energy, because again a tiny amount of matter from each atom is converted.
Insane to think that we’re unleashing small suns against one another. But also to think we have 10k+ of these on our planet. We are cavemen playing with fire, only this time we know what it can do and choose to do it anyways.
0:55 that is just frightening looking
Would have been impressive to see a recording of the entire explosion. But they aren't any longer I guess. 15 million fps takes a lot of film.
damnit, I told them to stop filming me when I poop.. -.-
+Master Penquin Needs to be top comment so badly xD
Wait wait wait... 15 million frames per second!... my iPhone X is 4K but only 60fps!!
15,000,000 pictures a second when people still talked in black and white? That’s incredible!
No. One frame with an exposure time of 1/15.000.000 s.
It was an array of 6 individual cameras, each taking a photo at that shutter speed. It wasn't a film camera, couldn't have been.
Think about it. They used film back then and for a long while after that. Physically rolling film stock at 15.000.000 frames a second would have the camera burst into flames.
@@khymaaren it was a joke comment.
The fireball of a nuclear explosion is hotter than the surface of the sun. The fireball of a nuclear weapon is about 1,000,000 C initially, and about 5,000 C at maximum size. Objects with temperatures exceeding 5,000 C glow white, and at over 7,000 C they glow blue. This is due to a phenomena called Blackbody Radiation. So, why is it that in all of these slow motion videos, the fireball always has this deep orange colour to it? Is it added in like a false colour image?
It could be for a lot of reasons. A lot of the ones we see here do look like they've been added to B&W images. But even with color film, it has a tendency to have color changes to the red end of the spectrum over time. And film response to color is almost never "flat"-they may have used a film stock that was less sensitive to blue.
But also remember that we're not simply seeing black-body radiation. We're also seeing glow caused by ionization of the atmosphere, and that will change the color as well.
@@almostfm Well yes it would shift to the red colour as it cools down, but all these videos are in super slow motion, you would expect them to be blue for at least the first few frames. Even at the maximum size, the fireball would be the equivalent of the sun's surface temperature, giving it a whitish colour.
I don't think ionised air is the culprit, since most of the gases in our atmosphere also produce blueish colours when ionised.
There is probably some kind of phenomena at play here that I don't understand. I'm certainly not a nuclear physicist.
They used very thick filters for the cameras otherwise you wouldn't see anything because the blast is extremely bright and it would burn the film. In these videos the surroundings are always black because of the filters and i think thats why the fireball looks orange-red.
I'd like to conjecture that the footage is entirely contrived.
@osalivan 15 million frames per second could actually be underestimate. The true speeds used in later tests may be classified. The 'rapatronic' was not a single camera, but a bank of them fired in sequence.
The cameras used a Kerr Shutter with an exposure time of possibly 1 nanosecond. If, say, 24 of these were arranged in a spiral facing the blast, with a trigger cable connected to each in series, they might be fired in sequence one per nanosecond. The speed of a pulse through wire is around 1 foot per nanosecond.
That works out at a 24 frame video clip of 1 billion frames per second. If such a device were built anywhere, information about both it and the videos would probably be permanently classified.
Note to self : “if you see an explosion cloud that resembles a cow’s teats, your ass is as good as dead.”

kk eae man
I'm reminded of the Isaac Asimov story where somebody has invented a new ultra-fast camera and its being used to film a nuclear explosion. The last line...
"The oval fireball had sprouted projections, then paused a moment in stasis, before expanding rapidly into a bright
and featureless sphere.
That moment of stasis... the fireball had shown dark spots for eyes, with dark lines for thin, flaring eyebrows, a hairline coming down V-shaped, a mouth twisted upward, laughing wildly in the hell-fire - and horns..."
Basically the plot of Oppenheimer just saved yourself 3 hours of a movie
Somehow a 90 second video on RUclips was a better depiction of this than Openheimer
ND filter 9000.
What are you trying to say RUclips??? This is the second video about Nuclear Explosions in my recommendations in as many days!!!
It's because of Oppenheimer. People are just really into this stuff now.
what documentary film is it taken from? thx
Sounds like William Shatner narrating, so I presume it is Trinity and Beyond (1995)
+EnDSchultz It's not Trinity And Beyond, but this might be from Atomic Filmmakers (1995).
RUclips is recommending me this video after US-IRAN escalation. Real smooth RUclips
We're dealing with forces we shouldn't be dealing with..
So nice of you to take the first 22 seconds from "Trinity and Beyond" documentary movie without ever mentioning it.
Imagine being able to go back in time to video these, with today's camera tech.
I’m here because I just saw a trailer for the new Nolan movie called Oppenheimer, and they briefly show their CGI version of this, in full color. A trailer hasn’t made me excited for a movie in years.
Also, I feel like it might weirdly make nuclear was less likely if we set one off (safely) and recorded it with all our modern technology. Just actually seeing it might shut people up who think we should just nuke places we don’t like. I.e. hurricanes, “nuke it ‘til the sand glows,” etc.
Oh to be Christopher Nolan and probably get to see the original negatives of this.
15 million pictures a second in 1945, but only 5 pictures of the missile that hit the pentagon on 9/11. Oh yes, I believe they couldn't get better photos than what they showed us.
+Ricangal This made me laugh, thanks
+Ricangal Is that sarcasm? I really hope it is.
On point.
If that's not sarcasm, then I'm sorry how stupid you are. You think someone would just bring a random high-tec camera up to the site like they were planning to film a missile hit the Pentagon?
The pentagon has LOTS of cameras around the bldg which would have caught the "airplane". Pls take your anger out on the gov't who has fooled you, not someone who doesn't mind questioning the absurd, and should be allowed to comment in the "Comments" section. I am NOT your enemy.

Looked like a small gas station explosion in Oppenheimer. They really missed the mark
No.
Imagine the shit they have now. We are living in truly strange times. Or The End Times, pick your poison.
These are the shit they have now. These are hydrogen/fusion bombs. Just that now they would be delivered in a different way and may have smaller yields than seen here for purposes of easier delivery.
how did you protect the film from the radiation?
my guess is a lead casing
+Wesley Burris the camera was pointed at the blast and you can't see out of lead.
+Terry Lambert the frame that was being recorded on to was exposed, but for only a split second. but the reels of fresh and recorded tape were protected.
The cameras themselves where to fare away to be affected by alpha particles emanating from the explosion. Three miles is usually safe distances from these particles.
I'm guessing they used thick lead glass or something,
Septo photography is so fast that it can capture light particles going through a waterfilled cocacola bottle, bear in mind that the light travels at 299.792,458 kilometers a second.....
If they shot a bullet through the bottle it would take over 1 year to view the entire footage....
