A-Bomb
Yesterday before heading home I also went to the Peace park museum. Its been 7 years since I last went there. I have some photos of the Dome. The Dome is the only remaining building from the A-Bomb blast of 1945. This is because of a combination of things. The bomb was dropped, and detonated 600 metres above this building, less strength? Plus some irons the building happened to have in its structure.
After exploding the bomb created basically a small sun over Hiroshima, taking the area upto 4000degrees centigrade. This was followed by a shockwave which just destroyed everything.
They had some stone where a man was sitting, and the flash from the blast was so strong it lightened the stone and you can see the shape of where the man sat, burt into the stone making it darker. One image that stood out to me was of kids having a school lesson, outdoors as there were no buildings. These kids sitting there in the middle of nothing.
It is just hard to imagine such a strength, why do we make things like this. This bomb is something from a nightmare, just wicked. I couldn't even get my head around it. Just to look up and imagine if one of these things went off in the sky above you.
