- This is a rare view of Castle Romeo in 1954 from beginning to its bell shaped cloud. This footage is only in standard definition (720x486). I wish I had scanned the 35-mm original negative when I had the chance. This was from a Cinemascope negative. Really interesting colors too.
Being aboard that plane, I wouldn't feel I were at a safe enough distance away from it. It looks like it's coming right atom.

@Ilyass Abbad hold the fuck on, what...?
What’s truly terrifying is when you realize just how far away they are
@Darren Murphy looks about right to me. Maybe even a little more considering the altitude they're at
@Darren Murphy Even further. 100km would give you radiation poisoning. The bomb can be clearly visible from up to 500km away, so I'd say they'd be at a safe distance of 400-500kms.
At 38 miles you were getting 3rd degree burns.
Actually they are approx 40 to 50 miles away.
You can verify through the other documented films of castle Romeo and Yankee tests where the camera man explains the picture size.

Actually its the brief flash at the very start of the explosion. You would see through whatever material was covering your eyes at that time.
because designers used tritium.Castle operation was experimental.they tested differend configurations.deuterium is most highly energetic,because blast and fire ball looks like sun.pure white.look at Dominic operation or Redwing Cherokee.similarly in gas welding.more oxygene,brighter fire.fire is white/blue and higher temperature.in deuteride explosion almost all was neutralized/burned.because radiation is much lower,less,fallout too.

Seems as if the plasma from the fission reaction was pushed out and dissipated by the fusion reaction, with a little bit of it lingering above the blast.

This was a 10.4 Mt blast. Nearly a thousand times that of the Hiroshima bomb.

This bomb on its own would have devastating effect on the entire mainland japan. The deathtoll would have reached well into the millions not just 80k dead plus fallout
@@rogeranderson4482 man, lets just hope that we are not insane enough to detonate it anywhere people live. Its enough to see it happened in 45
After seeing what a blast wave can do in Beirut's tiny explosion in comparison, watching this gives a whole new perspective of what happened to those Japanese cities smh
Truely horrifying.
The bombs dropped on japan were WAY smaller than castle romeo
We go on and on about 9/11 in America but only around 3,000 people died. During each bomb dropped on Japan around 50,000 people were burned alive and at least a hundred thousand more died over the next few years. Look up pictures of the entire city flattened and tell me it’s not an unknowable level of horror. Oh yeah and those bombs were miniscule compared to what we could do
Jonathan Key well small number compared to casualties that the Imperial Japanese Army inflicted to Asian pacific countries 🤷♂️ sucks but that was the only way to make them surrender war is horrible.
That's how I felt too. Seeing the destruction after a "small" accident. And then seeing nuclear explosions.... there is no way to survive that. I feel like that behruit explosion was a key for a lot of people to have perspective.
Fun fact, the detonator for the hydrogen bomb (the one you see in the video) is an atomic bomb. You literally need to use an atomic bomb as the TRIGGER for the explosion you see in this video. You can actually see it at the beginning. It’s the little puff of brightness at the beginning that floats up after the flash lol. Holy hell this thing was huge.
I've finally found the answer
Lol! You are wrong
No it isn’t . The entire reaction from fission to fussion is over in a few millionths of a second and the puff of brightness that floats up is just bomb debris
The entire explosion from the fission core to the fussion stage is a few millionths of a second and not detectable . The little puff rising at the beginning is just the bomb casing debris
Great footage. One we haven't seen before. Just an awesome site. Kinda wish I could have seen in person. But, yeah, POTENTIALLY horribly evil technology.

My conspiracy minded self says.
The hydrogen bomb isn't evil it's just an object. It's use is definitely evil and potentially an extinction event
If you use the period key and skip 14 frames forward into the clip, you can see the initial reaction (explosion core).
This is the area that instantly gets vaporated and "swallowed" by the fusion.
The rest is displacement, and probably cause the most damage/casualties (shockwave, debris, dust clouds, radiation)
You can not see the initial reaction of the implosion core . The entire reaction from fission to fussion is over in a few millions of a second
just to think that is whats happening in every star, billions of times every second.
Never ceases to send chills down my spine
Whats blowing my mind is that there was no sound of that explosion even after a minute of the explosion. Chances are the video had no audio but that felt strange.

0:47 I Would Be Soo Scared, On That Plane While Flying And That's Going Off In The Background😳😩
That plane looks like it's over 80 miles away. They're fine. Hense the footage.
Watching the initial blast at 0.25 speed is absolutely captivating. It's truly otherworldly. I can only imagine that the initial blue flash is Cherenkov radiation, as neutrons are flung out at faster than the speed of light in the surrounding air. Why a small (relative to this scale, it's probably 10's of km across) ball of blue light rises above the main mushroom cloud, is beyond me. (Maybe ionised air, or ash, at lower altitudes, blocks Cherenkov radiation from all but the top of the mushroom cloud?)
unlikely to be cherenkov radiation since air is much less dense compared to water, it's probably blue from the ionization of air molecules
@@drdefecation Air is more than capable of being a medium for Cherenkov radiation. Far less energetic nuclear events have caused visible Cherenkov. Cherenkov was seen over the open No. 4 reactor during the Chernobyl disaster, as well as during much smaller criticality events (such as the two demon core incidents, or the plutonium agitation event that killed Hisashi Ouchi). A regular fission bomb has orders of magnitude more energy than these, let alone Castle Romeo, one of the first thermonuclear bombs.
@@chrisfromsouthaus2735 you are wrong. in all of the instances you have listed the observed glow was due to ionized air, but because it vaguely resembles the cherenkov glow observed in water many sources conflate the two phenomena. here is what wikipedia has to say about the matter:
"Ionizing radiation is the cause of blue glow surrounding sufficient quantities of strongly radioactive materials in air, e.g. some radioisotope specimens (e.g. radium or polonium), particle beams (e.g. from particle accelerators) in air, the blue flashes during criticality accidents, and the eerie/low brightness "purple" to "blue" glow enveloping the mushroom cloud during the first several dozen seconds after nuclear explosions near sea level. This post-explosion effect has been observed only at night from atmospheric nuclear tests owing to its low brightness, with observers noticing it following the pre-dawn Trinity nuclear test,[3][4][5][6] as well as Upshot-Knothole Annie,[citation needed] Operation Fishbowl,[7] and the Cherokee shot of Operation Redwing.[8][9]"
@@chrisfromsouthaus2735 this is not to say that cherenkov radiation doesn't occur in air (in fact it is the detection mechanism of choice for many cosmic-ray observatories) but the primary contribution is ionized air glow and not cherenkov

Caption : rare footage of volcanic eruption in Mount Plutonium
iam intersted whta kind of pictures we would take with modern cameras like usig a phantom
Zagrusz Ventus Probably not a lot better than they were able to achieve back then. They were very interested in the structure of the fireball in its earliest moments for many good reasons, and as such employed some brilliant people to image these explosions. Look up Harold Edgerton and his Rapatronic camera. In the 1940s he was able to achieve exposure times in the Nanosecond range. Even today that is truly fast. They would set up these still cameras in arrays to capture video-like sets.
They were able to capture good high speed videos as well, albeit very short. Using a massive camera that rotated a mirror to focus the light on to an arch of film instead of moving film past a lens and shutter group they were able to film up to 10 million frames per second. We still can’t really film any single event faster than that. As you can imagine, this would only capture very brief moments in time, on the order of milliseconds long, but that was all they needed as all of the “interesting” bits of a nuclear explosion are done by then.
If they had the chance to film another nuke with modern high speed equipment (and it wouldn’t be a phantom, or even declassified, you can be sure of that), you can bet your bottom dollar that they would. But I don’t think the results would be much more impressive than they were able to achieve back in the day.
@@nasonguy what about like this czcams.com/video/EtsXgODHMWk/video.html
@@ventusprime This is some very cool technology but fundamentally different from what is done with "normal" high speed imaging. If you watch the video, you'll notice that in order to capture the light pulse, they are repeating the pulse of light over and over and over again and capturing a still image of a slightly progressed point in time from the last image. This isn't feasible with explosions because you want to capture one event in whole, and not tiny (nanosecond scale!) slices of a great many events.
I don't altogether understand how these "light speed" cameras work, and I am probably getting the fundamentals wrong, but I do know that the event must be repeated many many times to capture a 2 dimensional moving image.
I do find it great that the person in the video referencing Harold Edgerton and they display one of his iconic photographs, a .30 caliber bullet going through an apple.
