Fascinating photos.

A friend of mine did some diving off of Tinian a year or so back to look for all of the leftover bomb and test components that were literally bulldozed off of the edge of the island. Much of the stuff was still in good shape!

They're slowly restoring some of the historic assembly facilities here in Los Alamos that were used on those two bombs. One day it all may be a Nat'l Historic Park - I assume Tinian will be included too.
