Japanese artist Isao Hashimoto has created a beautiful, undeniably scary time-lapse map of the 2053 nuclear explosions which have taken place between 1945 and 1998, beginning with the Manhattan Project's "Trinity" test near Los Alamos and concluding with Pakistan's nuclear tests in May of 1998. This leaves out North Korea's two alleged nuclear tests in this past decade (the legitimacy of both of which is not 100% clear).
Each nation gets a blip and a flashing dot on the map whenever they detonate a nuclear weapon, with a running tally kept on the top and bottom bars of the screen. Hashimoto, who began the project in 2003, says that he created it with the goal of showing"the fear and folly of nuclear weapons." It starts really slow — if you want to see real action, skip ahead to 1962 or so — but the buildup becomes overwhelming.

1032 - 715 I wonder if Americans watching this remember how their politicians used to scare the nation by telling them how the USSR had nuclear superiority... I think there is an interesting parallel between the cold war and the war on terror.

To test against an attack on fleet units.
Underwater to test vs subs.
And some of those were on land... tiny islands in the pacific.

Bomb testing was close to home, I was born in August 1950. Fallout happened, cancer happened in droves here, lost family and friends in our town of Mohave County Az.. Yet the Government won't recognize our loss.
