Can you guess?
How many nuclear devices has humanity detonated since the first one at Trinity New Mexico?
I’ll give you a hint …
1 – Trinity NM
2 – Hiroshima
3 – Nagasaki
4 – that one in the Pacific
10 – a few more in the Pacific (Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands)
50 – a bunch at the US Nevada Test Site
100? 200? 500? (All of the testing by all of the nations)
1091?

I found this via an article in SMITHSONIAN.COM, which I discovered via jkmhoffman (thank you).
The above does not include Israel, North Korea, or Alabama.

According to
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_nuclear_weapons_tests
It is actually between 2119 or 2474 depending on how you want to count them.
That’s a lot of damn bombs!
