This article is from the video, and its content caused me to be extremely uncomfortable. I never thought that the source of the monster Godzilla would be here. At the beginning of the video, I mentioned a huge cement dome with a surface covered by 356 half a meter thick cement armor sheets, with a diameter of 115 meters, just like the one in the picture below.
Although it is surrounded by green, this is a seemingly beautiful death zone. The locals call it the grave. Some people say that the monster in the grave is not dead, and it will run out in no time.
was in 1946, and the location was Bikini Atoll. The islanders here had just ushered in peace, and it was the American soldiers who helped them get the peace. At this time, these soldiers were trying hard to persuade them to move to a place called Langerick 230 nautical miles away. The soldiers assured them that it was as suitable for survival as Bikini Atoll. In the near future, they could move back because these were all for the world to end the war as soon as possible. The simple islanders believed them because they had just driven away the Japanese who bullied themselves two years ago.
Who knew that as soon as the islanders moved away, they began a new weapon experiment. 20 of the 23 weapons were hydrogen bomb . The reason why they chose this small island was because the distance from the United States was moderate. In addition, more than 2,000 islands in the Pacific after World War II UN was intended to be handed over to the United States for temporary management. In addition, the environment here is particularly suitable for testing the experimental results and is also very convenient for the transportation of various materials, so this place naturally became the first choice for Americans, and they set up a Pacific nuclear test site here.
Crossroad Operation , which was the first batch of experimental codes. In June 1946, 95 target ships drove to designated areas. At that time, Americans believed that the nuclear weapon was mainly used to attack the fleet. They equipped all ships with various detection instruments. At the same time, a large number of animals, plants and insects were fixed on the ships to detect lethality and genetic mutation caused by radiation.
Everything is ready, three atomic bombs are already in place, they are called Gilda, Charlie and Helen of Bikini. At 9 o'clock on July 1, a B-29 flew into the designated waters on time and dropped the first bomb Gilda. The United States originally specially transformed 8 bombers for this matter as a photography platform for reporters, but when Gilda dropped, reporters from all over the world only saw a small mushroom cloud , and only two ships were sunk in the designated area, which made the Americans very embarrassed.
25 days later, after adjustment, the Americans were preparing to throw Helen into the water and detonate. At 8:35, a few hundred meters of mushroom clouds soared into the sky. The Americans showed their strength as they wished. Next, newspapers all over the world were talking about this. At that time, a designer from Louis Reed in France named his new design bikini after reading the newspaper. He believed that his design would definitely be a nuclear bomb in the fashion industry in the future. Now it seems that it is a prophecy.
According to rumors, the United States developed a total of four atomic bombs at that time. The first one was exploded as an experimental product in the desert of New Mexico . The second, third and fourth ones were initially set to be thrown into Japan, but the fourth one did not go down and the Japanese surrendered, so the fourth one was sent back to the laboratory, but the bomb was extremely unstable, and there were two critical accidents. Fortunately, two young experts broke the core with bare hands at that time, but for granted, both young people died of strong radiation. Later, I heard that the bomb was not successfully detonated in the end, and the Americans could only completely melt its core.
August 3, American soldiers were cleaning the deck of the target ship. On the other side, Stanford Valen's instrument showed that the radiation was seriously exceeded. He immediately reported to his superiors. Unfortunately, this did not attract anyone's attention. The soldiers who had cleaned the deck went to the support ship to take a bath in contaminated clothes. They didn't know that their skin, respiratory tracts and lungs had been infected. In the end, 150 support ships were contaminated one after another, and then they brought the pollution to all parts of the world.
At this moment, islanders 230 nautical miles away are suffering in their new homes, because there are few trees there, the sea breeze is very easy to blow down houses, the soil there is extremely barren, and it is impossible to plant a house. Even the surrounding coral carries a toxin called snowka, and the lack of freshwater resources makes them miserable.
Even though Americans were later warned by experts and moved these islanders to Geely Island again, there was still no way to survive so many people there. But what they didn't know was that the nuclear test had never stopped at all. The Americans just deceived the islanders and said that they would also help them disinfect the islands, and then they could go home.
How terrible was the nuclear competition between the United States and the Soviet Union at that time? In July 1945, when the US military had just detonated the first atomic bomb in New Mexico, the ancient Indian epic of the father of the atomic bomb Oppenheimer had not finished speaking, his design drawings were sent to Kremlin , and the world saw its power for the next two weeks.
1953, when the United States received the news that the first hydrogen bomb in the Soviet Union had successfully exploded, they were preparing for a hydrogen bomb called Cheqi Castle. Cheqi Castle was 456 cm long and 137 cm wide. It is a cylinder weighing 10.7 tons. Its explosion power is equivalent to 300 Hiroshima atomic bombs.
On March 1, 1954, a Japanese fishing boat accidentally entered the radiation range of the cheer castle. The ship was called the Fifth Fulongmaru. When all the crew members saw a white light lifted off, only white was left in the world. After 9 minutes, they found that it was snowing, but none of the snow seemed to melt. The captain realized the danger and immediately shouted to close the net and return, but it was still too late. That night, the crew members began to have nausea and headache, and accompanied by diarrhea, and their eyes began to turn red. A surviving crew member said that the snowflakes were only covered with a thin layer.
March 14, the fifth Fulongwan Wan was docked and burned. At this time, some crew members had already started to have burn-like blisters on their bodies. The severe faces of black hair fell off. These people were sent to Tokyo for treatment overnight. Although some doctors suspected that this was a bit like the radiation disease of the year, they did not receive enough attention. The fish salvaged were still sold to various markets.
Theoretically, the Japanese have already encountered similar disasters, so why do they still not pay attention to it? In fact, we can know from some decrypted materials many years later that the Japanese media under the control of Americans at that time, topics such as nuclear radiation were not allowed to be discussed.
However, on the other hand, the Tokyo side quickly came to the local area for testing. The results showed that 30 meters away from the hull, the nuclear radiation was still exceeding the standard. As a last resort, the media reported the relevant incident. The fish salvaged were recovered and destroyed overnight. There is still a sign where the fish were destroyed. From the information, it can still be seen that more than 460 tons of fish salvaged by more than 850 ships were all radioactively contaminated by .
At the same time, a Japanese director was preparing to make a movie. According to his observation, the American monster movies like King Kong were selling well. When he was still thinking about what he could make, the Fifth Fulongmaru incident was reported, and the director was soon inspired. So in 1954, the terrifying Godzilla landed on the Japanese island from the depths of the sea with a tumor full of his body. The initial inspiration for him to spit fire came from the snowflakes falling on the deck, and those tumors looked like people who died of radiation.
Now you can still see a museum in Tokyo, where the hull of the fifth Fulongwano Maru was thoroughly disinfected in 1976, as well as the diaries and some "snowflakes" written by the crew members back then.
In fact, not only these crew members were infected, but also the islanders on the nearby islands. They also saw snowflakes falling from the sky on the same day, but they didn't know that this was caused by American calculation errors. Originally, relevant experts believed that this explosion would only be equivalent to 300 Hiroshima atomic bombs, but when the explosion occurred, mushroom clouds of thousands of meters soared into the sky, they realized that this was not 300, but 1,000.
The islanders around
have been ill one after another, and some people have been treated with Chicago , but today's friends know that radiation poisoning is simply cured. It has broken all the human DNA, but the Americans at that time still wanted to argue. They issued a statement saying that the intensity of the explosion is not positively related to radiation, so please rest assured.
At this time, a Polish who had participated in the manufacturing of the Manhattan atomic bomb, finally spoke out ten years later. At first, he also imagined using nuclear fission to make weapons. After Poland fell, he moved to the United States, but when he participated in the manufacturing of the atomic bomb, he felt more and more that this was something that should not be designed, so he withdrew from the plan and became secluded.
This person is called Rotbra. He emphasized that the actual pollution is 1,000 times greater than the official announcement, and human beings should stop this stupid experiment. As more and more people join his camp, in 1955, he led these supporters to jointly initiate the " Russell-Einstein Manifesto ". Later in 1995, he also won the Nobel Peace Prize .
In 1958, someone broke out a list of them, which were filled with all data about Bikini Atoll. In 12 years, 67 million tons of equivalents were used. Under pressure from public opinion, Americans eliminated the surface soil on Bikini Atoll in 1968 and planted more than 50,000 coconut trees. In 1970, the islanders finally returned to their long-lost home. At this point, 23 years have passed.
10 years later, the islanders finally discovered the truth. They asked the Americans to give an explanation. So in 1977, more than 4,000 young American soldiers were called to an island called Eniwitak. Their task was very simple, drainage, digging pits, and at the same time, ships kept transporting some soil and garbage here. They didn't know what it was, but they just felt that it was too relaxed and happy compared to the previous work.
Three years have passed in a blink of an eye. In 1980, the project built by the soldiers was about to come to an end. They finally built a half-meter-thick cement armor to cover the things transported before, and then collectively returned to the United States. Later, in an interview in 2017, several survivors recalled that there were no protective clothing and no training manuals.
is buried under the dome. Their nuclear pollution will last at least 24,000 years. In 1982, a US special team warned that if there is a strong typhoon, the dome will break at any time. In 2013, the US Department of Energy had discovered that the dome began to weather and cracks. In 2014, it was labeled as the same as the Chernobyl . By 2022, sea levels will rise year by year, and the warning will be closer and closer. Once the dome is submerged, the monsters inside will break free from the cage. They will come from the sea like Godzilla and destroy everything.
Actually, this is not the subject I love, but after reading it, I felt a little depressed in my heart. The evils that humans have committed will still have to be borne by humans themselves. Knowledge does change destiny, but whose destiny does such knowledge change? #I am creating the second issue of Toutiao#
Copywriting comes from the president, thank you, see you next time!
