Donn Pardee > The Very Large Array (VLA) radio observatory one hour west of Socorro N.M.  Pictures of Jodie Foster abound in the control center which is only open to tourists 1 day in spring and 1 day in fall.
Donn Pardee > Ground Zero of the first atom bomb explosion.  The "Trinity Site"  about half an hour south east of Socorro N.M. on the White Sands missile range.  This place is open to the public 1 day in Spring and 1 day in fall.  One of the vaporized bomb tower's foundations are just to the left outside this photo.  This visit is equivalent to one dental x-ray.
Donn Pardee > Just outside the crater of the first atomic bomb explosion is the remains of "Jumbo", the container they decided not to use to explode the bomb inside of in case of a dud.  The damage to jumbo is not from the explosion, but rather from the recycle attempts over the years.
