On July 16th, 1945, in the early morning hours at Trinity, New Mexico, the atom bomb that was attached to the testing towers blew, changing dawn into morning. Nobody was properly prepared for this denotation. When the bomb detonated at last, the tower melted almost immediately and the bomb became three times hotter than the sun. It turned the surrounding sand into solid glass. The blast shattered glass windows of buildings up to 100 miles away. It was so bright, it lit up the sky, making it look brighter than the sun. The world has now entered its first ever atomic age.
