Declassified and upscaled nuclear test footages.

Christopher Nolan had so much nuclear explosion footage to draw from for the Oppenheimer movie. Instead he went with an ordinary explosion that didn't look like a nuke. One of the lamest fails.

I’m still 200% disappointed in the lamer than lame nuclear explosion in Oppenheimer. Such a letdown the lame way Nolan showed it.

Anyone who thinks Iran needs these is a traitor. 18 USC 2381-89. Iran is Hezbollah. Hezbollah is Palestine. Support the Constitution. 39 USC 1011. Make SEDITION and PRIVATEERING a DEATH PENALTY.

How do the cameras survive in blast like these?

That music sounds like a PWM LED light looks. Is it AI generated by chance? Very disorienting.

Are these rocket trails some kind of measurement grid? What is their purpose?

@radioactivered what are the smoke streamers, and why?

In this reality the nukes come out of the water not plane.

Watching history like this in high quality is both fascinating and terrifying 🌋

@IiId1ky411 To show the attention to detail in these tests, the sounding rocket trails were a U.S. Naval Ordnance Laboratory idea to visualize the shockwaves. Every detail, down to the atom. There's a lot of data here.

Trillions of micro particles highly radioactive with a lifespan of 50.000 years..!! And they tell you its the Sun and tobacco..

I LOVE USA.

@fabian70813 Who's holding the camera

Thanks for sharing these declassified gems from national labs.

Fascinující a děsivé.

Coming to a "First Strike" target near YOU, soon, citizens! ;)

How did the camera survive though. 👀

Seeing these restored archives is both fascinating and a powerful reminder of history.

This sound track sounds like the intro to the best tv show of the decade 🔥🔥🔥

INSANITY!

Sick upscale

Pull my finger 🤣

NAUGHTY PROFFOSER FARTED YO...

Helluva way to make a Hole

Jaja tiraban bombas como si fueracsño nuevo

This is both wonderful and awful. 😖 😱 😨 😰

That’s actually a 30.06 under a microscope (jk)

What an ugly thing for people to have created. May the next generations evolve to a higher consciousness.

Are any of these real?

if not for the utter devastation and horrible consequences, one may say they are in fact beautiful. nothing quite like it

What causes the speckles in the explosion footage?

@grok is this true?

what a species...
