The Trinity test of July 16, 1945 was
arguably history’s greatest scientific experiment. It represented not only
the capstone of the Manhattan Project, but the culmination of decades of
discovery in physics, chemistry, metallurgy, and other scientific fields.
The technology tested at Trinity would later be used to help bring
history’s deadliest conflict, World War II, to an abrupt and victorious
conclusion. In this two-part series, Mr. Carr follows up on his 18 February
webinar “Introduction to U.S. Nuclear Testing: 1945 - 1992” by discussing
the scientific discovery and technological innovation that are part of
Trinity’s legacy.
