Particles of glass found in the sand of the beach around Hiroshima are remnants of the city melted

Some beaches around Hiroshima are littered with glass beads made from the condensed remains of the destroyed city.

They were trained during the atomic bombing that destroyed the city of Hiroshima when the "Little Boy" was dropped by the US Air Force and exploded with an equivalent force of 15 kilotons of TNT.

The teardrop beads were created while the city was annihilated and made from the vaporized rubble of even Hiroshima.

This caused such destruction that the remains were thrown into an overheated cloud that then rained down on the condensed matter on the peninsula, where it has cooled and has remained to this day.

These forms – called the Motoujina Fall Debris (MFD) – were nicknamed "Hiroshimaites",

A scientific article explains how Mario Wannier, a retired geologist and marine ecologist, discovered the so-called Hiroshimaites strewn around the shaved city.

They reminded the experienced scientist of previous rock samples that had been formed 66 million years ago when a huge meteorite collided with the Earth and wiped out the dinosaurs.

He thought that they were formed by a huge amount of energy. The source of this was obvious, as it was only six kilometers from where the bomb had landed.

Dr. Wannier collected more than 10,000 samples and sent them to researchers at the Berkeley Lab and UC Berkeley for electron microscopy and X-ray analysis.

It was published in the journal Anthropocene and states that the attack on Hiroshima is the only "coherent explanation".

Most of the city was instantly destroyed when the bomb was released on May 6, 1945, the second and last atomic bomb ever used in the war, after the Nagasaki event.

An estimated 70,000 people died instantly, followed by about 250,000 people who died from the bombing due to radiation and injury.

"It is by far the worst event created by humans," said Wannier in a statement.

"To the surprise of finding these particles, the big question for me was: you have a city, and a minute later, you have no city.

The "little boy" was dropped by the US Air Force on the Japanese city from the sky and exploded with the equivalent force of 15 kilotons of TNT.

& # 39; There was the question of: & # 39; Where is the city – where is the material? & # 39; It's a treasure to have discovered these particles. It's an incredible story.

They contained a host of unusual elements and chemicals in such formations, such as aluminum, steel and iron.

"Some of them look like we have meteorite impacts, but the composition is quite different," said co-author Rudy Wenk, professor of mineralogy at the University of Berkeley.

"There were some pretty unusual shapes. There was pure iron and steel. Some of them had the composition of building materials.

WHAT HAPPENS IN THE BOMBING OF HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI?

The first atomic bomb was dropped on the Japanese city of Hiroshima on August 6, 1945 by an American B-29 bomber dubbed Enola Gay.

The uranium 235 bomb exploded at 580 meters above the ground, killing between 60,000 and 80,000 people instantly, some instantly disappearing from the heat of the vast explosion.

Others died in the fire that ravaged the city. It is estimated that about 135,000 people died from radiation sickness.

The blast destroyed more than 10 square kilometers of the city, and fires lasted three days, leaving thousands of survivors burnt and homeless.

With large buildings such as hospitals destroyed and more than 90% of the city's doctors and nurses killed in the blast, the wounded had little to help.

Three days later, a second US atomic bomb killed 70,000 people in Nagasaki.

Japan surrendered six days later, ending the Second World War.

Ten years later, the long-term effects of the bombs were noticed, including an increase in leukemia – a blood cancer not included in the study.

Cancer would disproportionately affect children, cases appearing two years after the bomb and having peaked four to six years later, reported the IBT.

The Radiation Effects Research Foundation estimates that 46% of leukemia deaths at bomb sites between 1950 and 2000 were due to bomb radiation, with 1,900 cancer deaths linked to the atomic bomb.
