Just a little over 60 years ago...

Oppenheimer recalled: "A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent" just after a few humans exploded their 1st nuclear "gadget" at "Trinity" test site (in southern New Mexico, USA) a little over 60 years ago (on July 16th of '45).

I hope & pray another nuclear bomb is never again used in anger or fear.

Re: a nuclear bomb & its use

I almost wrote that... but I wanted to leave a little room for a positive use... maybe deflecting an astroid away from Earth?
