At 0815 on 6 August 1945, the first atomic bomb, nicknamed "Little Boy", was dropped out of the B-29 "Enola Gay" and descended towards the Japanese city of Hiroshima. 43 seconds later, the city was engulfed in a flashing bright light and a shockwave of unimaginable heat and deadly pressure. From the hypocenter of the resulting mushroom-cloud, a blue-green fireball burned and blinded the city and its inhabitants with unprecedented power. 140.000 people were killed in the first few moments. Tens of thousands would die from wounds and radiation. The age of atomic warfare had begun.

August 6, 1945. On this fateful Monday morning our world changed forever. Nuclear weapons were now a reality, destruction on a whole new level a possibility. International power dynamics, foreign politics and conflict handling would never be the same once this new kind of weapon of mass destruction had entered the scene. The threat of potentially world-ending nuclear war, the fear that the men in power would push “the red button”, would hang over people like a dark cloud from this day on. The Nuclear Age had begun. If you’re interested in how politics developed during The Nuclear Age, you can explore that in the day-by-day coverage of The Cuban Missile Crisis over on TimeGhost History. The first introduction, “USA Starts the Atomic Arms Race”, is already up and you can watch it right here: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/sKuIndJzypu-lH0.html If you would like to gain early access to our Sabaton History episodes and actively support this awesome project that we are so passionate about, you can do so by joining our Patreon community.

I LOVE this last idea! See you at the piano bar Indy! ;) Actually I love everything in this episode. Bring back Nuclear Attack on the setlist pleaaaase! \m/ I was waiting for this one to be honest. The nuclear bombing of Japan is a subject I hold in high importance in my heart. First thing I wanted to do when I got the chance to travel to this incredible country is to go to Hiroshima. And there's a lot to be said about this city now and through the tales in its museum and remembrance places for there are many... The Corean monument, the gardens, the children park, the peace bell, the old castle and its two trees which survived the bombing! The cenotaph and its everlasting flame... and of course the Genbaku dome. I highly and warmly recommend to anyone visiting Japan to go discover Hiroshima. It's the most peaceful place in the world. One would think it's a heavy place to go to like Auschwitz must be, but it's not. The only feelings I felt it spreads are compassion, understanding, forgiveness and an unbreakable will to build a peaceful future for all so this never happens again. Thank you for keeping the flame of remembrance lit, team! It's one more step towards Hiroshima's goal ^^

I am going to have to look through my old pictures and keepsakes my grandparents left me, but my grandfather was a Secret Service agent and protected both FDR and Truman. For a couple of years, my grandparents lived in Detroit, because my grandfather was part of the Secret Service detachment that made sure that the Presidential limousine had the required access for FDR who of course had polio (pretty sure it was still secret at that time). He passed away while I was still very little, but we have an old silver letter holder with the seal of the Secretary of War. Mr. Stimson gave it to my grandfather because my grandfather told great jokes. As you can imagine, Stimson had some pretty heavy stuff going on and needed a laugh now and then. And all of the yes on Indy and the piano bar. And at least one or three of Sabaton's songs also lend themselves nicely to some Bobby Darin Mack the Knife lounge lizard vibes. Just sayin'. Because I'm supposed to be on that boat in December (provided that I'm allowed into the EU since I'm American). And this is worth the price of admission alone.

I actually have some personal connection with this. So this is my story. My grandfather was one of the first people to make landfall on the Japanese mainland when the "all clear" was given. I was told he was on one of the boats that armed one of the bombs (I forget which one, my father doesn't remember too much about it now) but my grandfather on my mother's side had a neighbor/best friend that I know did load the Enola Gay. But, my grandfather after marching a few miles inland, found a porcelain candy dish. It was in pristine condition amongst all of the carnage of this bomb and brought it back to Pittsburgh as a war trophy. He married his highschool sweetheart that same year and proceeded to be like every post war family and have several children, my father being the second oldest of 7. What my dad tells me, is that him and a few of his younger brothers where wrestling around and knocked over this dish and broke the edge of it off. He told me that my grandfather was FURIOUS! It was the most angry he ever saw his father. So basically this thing survived one of the most devastating attacks in human history, but barely survived my father and his brothers. He still has the candy dish, it's now like an family heirloom. I've actually asked my father if he should test it for any kind of trace radiation on it. But I've always wanted to visit Japan, I might just bring it back to them in the future for their museum.

About igniting the atmosphere: the nitrogen in the air can be fused, releasing energy and might start a chain reaction. The possibility was raised and they did the math. They quickly found that it is impossible. Even the conditions in the core of our Sun do not come close to igniting nitrogen. You need a dying star with at least 10x the mass of the Sun to achieve that.

@pantherace1000 3 жыл бұрын

That's really interesting. Do you have a source that describes this in greater detail?

@Scipiworld 3 жыл бұрын

@@pantherace1000 if you're curious, there are two major forces involved in nuclear fusion: the strong nuclear force and the electromagnetic force. The strong nuclear force is responsible for binding protons and neutrons together is very powerful, but its range is short. The electromagnetic force is something you're probably familiar with, since it is the reason electricity works, why magnets pull and repel, and why we have chemical bonds. Now to fuse two atoms together, you need to get those two atoms close enough for the strong nuclear force to overpower the electromagnetic force. Since the nucleus of any atom is positive, two nuclei will repel each other with a substantial amount of force. Elements with more protons will repel even more because more charge=more repulsion. Hydrogen can fuse with hydrogen fairly easily, it's only one proton each and our sun does it all the time. Helium can fuse with helium, but with each nucleus having two protons, it's about four times as difficult. Our sun isn't quite hot enough in the core to do this, but will reach that temperature in maybe a billion years. Now nitrogen, with seven protons in each nucleus, will be roughly 49 times harder to fuse. You'll need a very large star to do that. This minimum amount of energy is called the Coulomb Barrier. If you are curious in reading more, a wikipedia rabbit hole is good fun without diving too heavily into heavy-duty physics. If you with to read more academic sources, check out anything from experimental nuclear fusion at places like the National Ignition Facility or theoretical nuclear fusion including other fusion chains such as the CNO cycle.

My great uncle (grandfather's brother) was in the Bataan Death March and POW until the end of the war. While researching the prison camp he was in, I found a book written by another prisoner, Terrence S. Kirk, of his camp called "The Secret Camera." The camp was just outside Kokura which was the primary target for Bockscar and Fat Man (Nagasaki was actually the secondary target as cloud cover and antiaircraft fire prevented them from dropping it on Kokura). They found out shortly after release they were lucky they weren't nuked as the United States was unaware of the prison camp. A side note... when released, my Great Uncle, who was 6'3" weighed only 90 lbs.

It's amazing the stories told by veterans and survivors of war and prisoners about their encounters and hardships. My grandfather fought in the Pacific Theatre for the United States Army Air Corps in a weather recon squadron. His position in the crew was radio operator and side gunner. He told us about a mission they went on to scout out targets and photograph what they looked like 12 hours before and after the target was confirmed, the confirmed target was Hiroshima due to ideal visibility and weather conditions.

I have been to Japan last September as part of a university field trip. We had a great time, as Japan is amazing and the Japanese are really friendly and welcoming people. As we slowly made our way from Tokio to the south, we had a final stop in Hiroshima. We had a sightseeing tour and visited the atomic bomb museum and oh boy. No one spoke a single word for over an hour as we left, most with tears in their eyes. I even have to cry as I write these words. It was an interesting, nevertheless horrifying experience. At the end, we learned to fold paper cranes and placed some there. You can look the story behind this up, if you are interested. Just one thing to say: Be responsible! For all actions that you take, little or big, try to make this world a better place. I wish you all to stay healthy in these times. Have a nice day.

Great episode covering a great song. Since "Nuclear Attack" the song mainly focuses on the dropping of the atom bomb and the devastation it caused, if anyone's interested in a different song covering more of the material Indy talked about, I'd recommend the song "Manhatten Project" by Rush off their album "Power Windows". It's one of their more underrated songs and it covers the research, testing, use. and legacy of the atomic bomb. It's a very different song from "Nuclear Attack", so it's interesting to see how different bands can cover the same event so differently.

The anecdote I read was someone asked just before the Trinity shot about igniting the earth's atmosphere and Enrico Fermi whipped out his slide rule , did some quick calculations, put it back and reassured the crowd that wasn't going to happen. Evidently of such stature was Fermi that everyone looked at each other, shrugged, and donned their welder's glasses to witness the fires of creation. I like to think that creating nuclear weapons is the galactic equivalent of graduating from sentient tech high school.

"I am become death, the destroyer of worlds." - J. Robert Oppenheimer Oppenheimer didn't actually say or think that when the bomb went off. That was an invention of Oppenheimer's after the bombs were used to appease other scientists who were criticizing him for helping make the bombs. Oppenheimer's brother Frank told the official historian for Los Alamos on the day after the bomb dropped that after the bomb worked the 2 brothers who had both been working on the project and were next to each other when the bomb went off started hugging each other jumping up and down with Robert Oppenheimer saying over and over "it worked it, worked, I can believe it actually worked" It is a nice quote to have still though but entirely made up after the fact.

Ah good, Indy's a man of culture - Resist and Bite is my favorite Sabaton song too. Something I would like to add is for the second bombing Nagasaki was not, in fact, the intended target. The crew flying the plane had difficulty locating the planned city (Forgot the name) due to weather reasons, mostly because it was cloudy. When they came across Nagasaki they either thought it was the targer city or they simply needed to drop the bomb, and so Nagasaki was bombed and bathed in atomic fire. Will get back once I find out the name of the city. EDIT: I must apologize, I did a research project for the atomic bombings and the planned invasion that would have taken place (Operation Downfall) and I thought I had kept my references for the project saved on my computer but apparently I deleted it at some point. Hopefully someone here will know what the city is.

I had read somewhere (not sure if its true) that Tokyo was supposed to be one of the first bombing sights. The only thing that saved it was that the highest general in command went there on his honeymoon and said it was to pretty to destroy so he refused to let anyone bomb it.
