The Trinity project was the code name of the nuclear test in 1945. It was created because of the Manhattan Project. It took place in the Jornada del Muerto desert.
The Manhattan Project was the code name for the WWII project to build the first Nuclear Weapon, the Atomic Bomb.
The code name for the U.S. effort to develop nuclear weapons during WWII was "The Manhattan Project".
Manhattan Project was the code name for the secret project to design and build a nuclear bomb.
Basically a nuclear weapon is an explosive device that derives its destructive force from nuclear reactions, either fission or a combination of fission and fusion.A nuclear bomb also known as an atomic bomb. This is a bomb where nuclear fission is the sole source of the energy for the explosion. This explosion occurs when uranium235 and/or plutonium239 is transformed from a subcritical mass to a supercritical mass very rapidly, when a few neutrons are then fired into that supercritical mass the chain reaction continues and cascades at an exponentially increasing rate until it results in a huge explosion. However such fission only bombs have a theoretical limit to their yield of under 1 megaton.If fusion is involved somewhere in the bomb, hydrogen nuclei (typically deuterium and tritium) fuse. By use of multiple fusion stages the yield of such bombs can be increased without theoretical limit.Some very high yield fusion bombs are enclosed in a shell of uranium238 which will not normally fission, however the very high energy fusion neutrons can cause it to fission. This one feature can provide as much as 90% of the bomb's total yield, but also increases fallout by a similar amount.
The first nuclear explosion in Los Alamos took place on July 16, 1945, as part of the Manhattan Project. This test was code-named "Trinity" and marked the first detonation of a nuclear weapon.
Smiling Buddha was the code name for the first nuclear test explosion done my the Indian army on May 18,1974.
The Trinity project was the code name of the nuclear test in 1945. It was created because of the Manhattan Project. It took place in the Jornada del Muerto desert.
The first test explosion of a fission nuclear device was tested on July 16, 1945 at Alamogordo, New Mexico, as the culmination of the WWII Manhattan Project. The device and test, codenamed Trinity, had an estimated yield of approximately 20 kilotons, and was the first successful test of a plutonium implosion device.There were many hi-speed cameras running to document the event, and they show the explosion at its initial detonation. The camera technology was pioneered by EG&G founder Harold Edgerton, and the still frame picture of the initial explosion of the Trinity test is one of the most iconic and famous photographs of the 20th century.In the mid '90's following the breakup of the USSR, the Energy Department declassified many documents and test films, and they were eventually made into a documentary video named "Trinity and Beyond: The Atomic Bomb Movie". It is an excellent record of the Trinity test and all subsequent milestone nuclear and thermonuclear detonations. It is available on DVD and is an excellent resource for anyone interested in the field or subject.
"Smiling Buddha" was the code name of India's the first nuclear weapon test conducted on May 18, 1974.
hammurabis code was the first first written code of laws in the history of the world.
Trinity was the code name for the explosion of the first atomic bomb in New Mexico in 1945.
The name of the first nuclear bomb was "Little Boy," dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, on August 6, 1945, by the United States during World War II.
Some 43 nuclear tests were detonated at Enewetak from 1948 to 1958. The first hydrogen bomb test, code-named Mike, was tested on November 1, 1952. The explosion vaporized the island of Elugelab. This was done for testing.
The code name for the first nuclear weapons test was "Trinity." It took place on July 16, 1945, in the New Mexico desert as part of the Manhattan Project.
It is the one of the first code in the world....
The earliest known code of law was the Hammurabi code. It was the first laws codified together.
