Trinity
If the radiance of a thousand suns
Were to burst at once into the sky,
That would be like the splendor of the Mighty One...
I am become Death,
The shatterer of Worlds.
The Bhagavad-Gita
The poem above was used to describe the feeling that the people felt at New Mexico during the Trinity Test. It was horrifying and splendid at the same time. The blast was so powerful and bright that a blind girl many miles away from the explosion saw the actual flash.
