Time Lapse Nuclear Testing.wmv-Explosions from 1945 to 1998.

Japanese artist Isao Hashimoto has created a beautiful, undeniably scary time-lapse map of the 2053 nuclear explosions which have taken place between 1945 and 1998. It starts really slow — if you want to see real action, skip ahead to 1962 or so — but the buildup becomes overwhelming.

    The real party didn't start until 1962.

      Well they don't exactly have much of their own land, especially uninhabitable desert.
