Its a harnessing of the basic power of the universe. What has been done is the greatest achievement of organized science in history. In a august 6th, 1945, the United States detonated the First Nuclear weapon in history over the city of hiroshima, japan, followed by a second detonation august 9th over the city of nagasaki. Six days later japan surrendered bringing an end to the second world war.

It looks like we are going to have potentially some solid results by the end of the day. We will keep you posted. Bac
