Hi,

 

Just got a newsletter from TechRepublic, and inside was an article saying that today (130705) was the 60th anniversary of the completion of building the first American nuclear bomb, named 'Gadget'.

 

'Gadget' then was then used in the 'Trinity Test' was detonated three days later with an output of 18.6 kilotons.
