Were you on-board the Alabama during the typhoon that hit the group? If so, what were your experiences?

My father was involved in the Manhattan Project operations and testing at Los Alamos and Alamogordo, and, from what I understand, the Alabama may have been just north of Tokyo when the first atomic bomb was dropped. Did he, or anyone else on-board, see/hear/experience anything?

I realize this.

However, there were tens of thousands, if not hundreds of thousands of people, who saw and heard the blasts from distances from 100 to as far as 250 miles from ground zero, depending upon the haze and cloud cover in their directions.

According to the "official record" the final mushroom cloud from the bomb dropped on Hiroshima reached approximately 50,000 ft and "was photographed from a distance of almost 360NM from the blast." However, despite those Wiki articles, those pictures were not just taken in "combat planes flying at 25k ft," but more like at 200 NM, and taken at sea level, indicating a final cloud height exceeding 100k ft, which vastly underestimates the size of the bomb dropped.

From my father, who was the lead MP officer at the test site, the "big booms" meant scaring the immediate shit out of folks up 150 miles away from the location...often with broken windows, fallen china, and reports of earthquakes....and followed by reports of darkening skies as the mushroom clouds rose.

In my fathers words: "Those were not 50,000ft bomb clouds causing concern in the desert. Those were more like 100,000ft things. Shit that went "boom" and launched into space kind of things. When we had to put on goggles and dig into trenches at 16 miles from zero, we knew it was the real deal."

KGloria, how can you even claim to objectively discuss algorithmic dis/mis information when the very funding for the Aspen Institute comes from "Charitable" organizations like the Gates and Robert Wood Johnson, which are directly involved in buying and manipulating news, reporting and search results availability on a global scale? The Aspen Institute is part of the echo chameber of BS your puppert masters have created.

forget asking relevant questions. the answer is and will always be - does the message fit our narrative? HOw can we package our answer to make ourselves seem useful in our "Donation funded echo chamber." THese fucking people are doing "Made up jobs solving made up probelms and offering made up solutions for BS" which doesn't even exist in 99.99% of poeples lives. these grant funded blowhards are truly fucking insufferable and toxic to everything they come in contact with.
