Inktober 2025 - 10/21 - "Blast"

 

Before Christopher Nolan’s “Oppenheimer” (2023), there was a movie called ‘Fat Man and Little Boy’ (1989), directed by Roland Joffe. This memorable image of Oppenheimer comes from the latter, the first thing that came to mind with today’s prompt ‘Blast’.

The movie depicts Oppenheimer — a heavy smoker — about to light a cigarette when the bomb goes off. This actually is a myth.

However, the theoretical physicist Ted Taylor ignited a smoke with thermal energy released by a test blast on June 1, 1952, using a mirror to focus the light from the detonation onto the tip of his cigarette.
