      Agreed, it's stunning. The Wikipedia entry explains why:
      "Photographs of Baker are unique among nuclear detonation pictures. The searing, blinding flash that usually obscures the target area took place underwater and was barely seen. The clear image of ships in the foreground and background gives a sense of scale. The large condensation cloud and the vertical water column are distinctive Baker shot features. One picture shows a mark where the 27,000-ton battleship USS Arkansas was."

    I always imagined that more radioactivity would be released from an underwater test, considering the fact that the water vapor most likely carries the radioactive particles better than dust or air itself. That wall of condensed water vapor is truly terrifying when you think about it.

    • @bami2
      @bami2 8 лет назад +96

      It's the same amount of radioactivity, but it doesn't get carried into a mushroom cloud into the upper atmosphere. It immediately comes crashing back down and then gets diluted pretty fast in the ocean after that.
      Locally the radiation is a lot worse, but it beats the shit out of a radioactive cloud that will travel half the world depositing its fallout everywhere. But I still wouldn't want to live there or eat anything produced in the area, as it's still heavily contaminated 70 years afterwards.

    • @puncheex2
      @puncheex2 6 лет назад +14

      Not true. The water column rose up to about 2 km before collapsing more or less completely back into the lagoon. The steam created condensed quickly and also returned to the lagoon waters. On land, the mushroom cloud can rise thousands of feet into the air, high enough to reach the jet stream.

    Awesome! I've watched the original many, many times but I never noticed the reflected shock wave coming off the large ship at the right of the screen in the first sequence. Watch for a second condensation cloud radiating from the ship right after it's hit by the shock wave!

    This is my wife's favourite test; the fact she has one at all something of an indictment of living with me! It is *lovely* though.
    The detail also is massively interesting. For instance I have always read that the real contamination came from the low-level 'mist' that surged from around the very lowest stalk of the mushroom cloud. However I have never really seen it before properly. In this clip it is clear as day... Amazing.
    I cannot *wait* to see what Castle Romeo looks like in real 1080p!!!

    "Photographs of Baker are unique among nuclear detonation pictures. The searing, blinding flash that usually obscures the target area took place underwater and was barely seen. The clear image of ships in the foreground and background gives a sense of scale. The large condensation cloud and the vertical water column are distinctive Baker shot features. One picture shows a mark where the 27,000-ton battleship USS Arkansas was."
