Das Video ist zwar schon von 2010, aber ich habe es gerade erst im Web entdeckt. Verdammt erschreckend, dass es in dieser Zeit ganze 2053 Tests bzw. Explosionen nuklearischen Ursprungs gab. Eine Übersicht in Form eines Timelapse hat Isao Hashimoto geschaffen.
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. 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.
