FRANK: Ground zero observation posts at 10,000 yards north, south and west. - Where do we trigger from? - Uh, south 10,000. And base camp is ten miles south, here. And there's a further observation post on-on that hill 20 miles away. What's that, Frank? Trigger lines already went in. The Air Force requested a line of lights for their B-29. What B-29? Our bomb's on the tower. FRANK: They want to use the test to confirm a safe operating distance. That's risky. Not as risky as dropping one over Japan and hoping that we were right about the blast radius. Don't let them slow us down, we're firing on the 15th. - The 15th? That's not... - GROVES: The 15th. The 15th.

Wait, are we saying there's a chance that when we push that button, we destroy the world? Nothing in our research over three years supports that conclusion. Except as the most remote possibility. How remote? Chances are near zero. Near zero? What do you want from theory alone? (scoffs) Zero would be nice.

Goddamn it. (sighs) (chuckles wryly) You told me I'd be okay. Yeah, well, I didn't have all the facts, did I? Here's a fact. President Eisenhower pinned the Medal of Freedom on my chest last year 'cause I've always done what's right for this country. They don't want me in the Cabinet room? Well, that's... that's fine. Maybe they should just invite Oppenheimer instead. Maybe they will.

- How'd I do? - MAN: I'll call recess, ten minutes. Maybe a little too well, Robert. That was six years ago. You know, the truly vindictive, patient as saints. Strauss has been perfectly clear that he is neutral. - (glass shatters) - Wake up. It is Strauss. It's always been Strauss, and you know it. Why won't you fight him?

A lowly shoe salesman. Lewis, we can win this thing. I-I think we can get the Senate to grasp that you did your duty, painful though it was. Now, will Hill's testimony back us up? - COUNSEL: Hill will be fine. - I don't really know him, but, uh, he was one of Szilard's boys in Chicago, and they never forgave Robert for not supporting their petition against bombing Japan. This was taken 31 days after the bombing. Virtually everyone in the street, for nearly a mile around, was instantly and seriously burned. (people gasping) The, uh, Japanese spoke of people who wore striped clothing upon whom the skin was burned in stripes.
