Nuclear Detonation Timeline
Bodycopy:
Amazingly disappointing. The 2053 nuclear tests and explosions that took place between 1945 and 1998 are plotted visually and audibly on a world map by Isao Hashimoto.
"The first three detonations represent the Manhattan Project and the two bombs that ended World War II. After a few representative minutes the USSR and Britain enter the nuclear club and the testing really starts to heat up.
Even though the video does not differentiate between sub-critical "safety" tests and full detonations, you get a good idea of the fever of the nuclear arms race.
The time line does not extent to tests by North Korea (October 2006 and May 2009)."
