Trinitite (First Atomic Bomb)

After months of research and testing, the top-secret "Manhattan Project" produced the world's first nuclear bomb. The device was successfully detonated on July 16th, 1945 at Alamogordo, New Mexico under the code name "Trinity". The resulting explosion was equivalent to the energy of 18,000 tons of TNT. The immense heat of the atomic blast melted the desert sand as it was drawn up into the fireball. The liquid sand rained down, forming sheets of glass as it cooled. This atomic glass has come to be known as Trinitite.

Customer photo review of Trinitite (First Atomic Bomb)

I really like this piece. It’s not just a rock, it’s a small part of history from the Trinity test. The fact that it’s sealed in acrylic makes it feel safe and well-preserved, and it also gives it a display-quality look rather than something loose or fragile.

Customer photo review of Trinitite (First Atomic Bomb)

It’s sure as heck the real thing. The quality of the display has already drawn positive comments. I have it on a shelf, next to a small meteorite, a fossil shark’s tooth, and a small vial of some black sand from Iwo Jima. I like having objects that open a door into history for an inquisitive mind.

Delivered on time , package properly, certificate of authenticity is exactly as expected. It’s awesome to own a piece of history that changed the course of mankind and led to the surrender of the Empire of Japan.

Communication and shipping were excellent and speedy. The display that I received had two small specimens of Trinitite rather than a larger single piece as in the advertisement. These may be the only samples available, but non the less was disappointing.

Really seemingly overpriced. Not dramatically on everyone but by 30% on every purchase by comparison with any other site.

Gave it to my son; we’ve been listening to an Audiobook about the history of the Atomic Bomb. He was super impressed with this “piece of history”

My husband and I are SO excited to gift this to our 19 year old war & military history buff son for Christmas! We opened our box to check it out when it first arrived (by the way it arrived sooner than predicted!). I'd be happy to add photos after our son opens it on Christmas!

Got this and another piece as a two part Christmas present for my boyfriend since the two are related, and between the two, I think he’ll like this half more. Very cool pieces to have and I can’t wait for him to open them!
