No, thank you. It's a long way to Zurich. You get any skinnier, we're gonna lose you between the seat cushions. I'm Rabi. Oppenheimer. I caught your lecture on molecules. Caught some of it.

The biggest man-made explosion in history. Now let's calculate how much more destructive it would have been if it were a nuclear and not a chemical reaction. Expressing power in terms of tons of TNT. But it will be thousands. Well, then kilotons.

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.

None that spring to mind. If you'll just allow me to continue with my statement... Mr. Robb, you'll have ample opportunity to cross-examine.
