The Trinity shot is one of the most infamous photos in American history and one of its most controversial.The Trinity shot is meaningful not just because of it impressive display of shear power and human ingenuity. Those things are undeniable, it is instead part of the larger destructive nature of not only mankind but of industrialized warring nations. The blast is also a major player in what the world calls the Atomic Age. Never again will the idea of a nuclear bomb be forgotten. Luckily there have been relatively few actual destruction's, in comparison to how many bombs of the nuclear variety have been created. This destructive technology has left it's mark on human history in so many more ways than most people realize. It's most direct consequence will be felt through fear and hysteria and through the perpetuation of the Cold War.
