Mushroom cloud (A few minutes after detonation)

Mushroom cloud (A few minutes after detonation)

Mushroom cloud captured a few minutes after the detonation of the atomic bomb; taken about 6.5 kilometers northeast of the hypocenter. According to records held by the United States Armed Forces, the cloud billowed to 9,000 meters in the sky within three minutes of the blast. The photograph was taken by Seiso Yamada, then 17, who was walking to visit Mikumari Gorge in Fuchu-cho, Aki County in Hiroshima Prefecture, with his friends. They were watching a B-29 and a parachute in the sky from the entrance to the gorge when a flash, a rumbling of the ground, and a roar suddenly hit them. Trees in the pine forest around them shook violently from the blast, and a huge mushroom cloud rose rapidly, which he photographed with a Japan-made camera he had brought with him. (The parachute Mr. Yamada saw is believed to have been the blast measurement instrumentation dropped by one of the planes accompanying the Enola Gay.) **Editorial use only, Commercial use not possible**, Credit: Seiso Yamada/Chugoku Shimbun/Kyodo News Images

Li Dongkui is a forest ranger at Zhanggutai Forest Farm in Zhangwu County. The forest farm is located on the southern edge of the Horqin Sandy Land and is part of the Three-North Shelterbelt Forest Program. In 1987, after retiring from the military, Li began working at the forest farm as a ranger. The most profound childhood memory Li has of his hometown is the fierce sandstorms. He knew that only by advancing sand control could this situation be fundamentally changed. However, the challenges Li faced were far beyond his imagination. In the beginning, the conditions on the forest farm were extremely harsh, far from populated areas, with no water or electricity, and the land was covered with sand dunes. The forest there had no roads and was rugged, so the forest farm equipped Li with a horse. To better patrol the forest, Li moved h
