Produktbeschreibung

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Jack W. Aeby (born August 16, 1923) is an American mechanical engineer most famous for having taken the only well-exposed color photograph of the first detonation of a nuclear weapon on July 16, 1945 at the Trinity site, New Mexico. While color motion pictures of the Trinity test were made, most were badly overexposed or damaged due to the fireball's tendency to blister and solarize the film. Aeby was a civilian assigned to the Health Physics Group with Emilio Segrè at the time his snapshot was taken.Aeby is a source for a story about a notable estimate made by Enrico Fermi at that test
