Los Alamos Historical Museum

One room in the museum was dedicated to the follow -on events from the atom bomb. It included completely reconstructed bomb shelters, items from the protest movement, and commercial ventures. The earrings in the newspaper article (lower left side in picture) were made of the molten remains following the first bomb test (Trinity).
The last thing you see as you leave the museum is two 5 1/2 ft panoramic aerial photos; one of each of the two Japanese cities that were bombed. They define total destruction.
