-Where do we trigger from?
-South, 10,000.
大本营在这儿以南十英里处
And base camp is ten miles south here.
20英里外的那座山上还有一个观察哨
And there’s a further observation post on that hill, 20 miles away.
那是什么 弗兰克? 引爆线已经就位了

What B-29? Our bomb’s on the tower.
他们想利用这次测试
They want to use the test
确认安全操作距离
-太危险了
to confirm a safe operating distance.
-That’s risky.
总比不上在日本上空空投那么危险
But not as risky as dropping one over Japan,
希望我们对爆♥炸♥半径的判断是正确的
and hoping that we were right about the blast radius.
别让他们拖慢我们的进度 我们将在15号♥测试

with Frank and Kistiakowsky.
你们都会安排到大本营
You’ll all be assigned to Base Camp,
西观测站 或称远观测点

辐射云怎样？
What about the radiation cloud?
如果没有强风 它应该会散落在2-3英里范围内

疏散措施已就位
Evacuation measures are in place.
但是我们需要好的天气来提高能见度 所以必须是晴天
But we need good weather for visibility, so it has to be fine.
所有人都出去！

So if anyone has anything, speak now.
好了 停下 停下! 所有人注意 上♥床♥垫
Okay, stop, stop! Everybody, mattresses.
把床垫辅在下面
Put the mattress there, underneath.
我们可以进行最后的内爆测试
We could use a final implosion test.
-又没什么坏处
-干吧
-It couldn’t hurt.
-Do it.
还有什么能阻止我们吗？
Is there anything else that might stop us?
开始了 是吗？
It’s happening, isn’t it?

你是说我们必须推迟吗？
Are you saying we’ll have to delay?
我是说这样做比较稳妥
I’m saying it would be prudent.
这种天气 已经到达现场了吗？
This weather, has it reached the site?
贝斯打电♥话♥来告诉你内爆测试失败了
Bethe is calling to tell you the implosion test failed.
喂 汉斯? 是的 他在这里
Hello, Hans? Yes, he’s here.
是的
Yes.
他错了吗？
Is he wrong?

-No.
-Explain!
嗯 我不能 我只是 我……
Well, I can’t. I just, I…
我只知道 我知道内爆♥炸♥药会起作用的
I just know, I know the implosion lenses will work.
如果我们发射这些引爆器而它们没有引发反应
If we fire these detonators and they don’t trigger a reaction,
两年生产的钚会散落在白沙上

我用一个月的工资 和你赌十块钱 内爆♥炸♥药能成功
A month of my salary against ten bucks says it lights.
哦 上帝！

Let’s get to South Observation.
豁出来 我们能在那里下定决心
Pull ’em out, and we can make our determination there.
团队已经两夜没合眼了！
The team hasn’t slept in two nights!
如果我们停止 确保炸♥弹♥安全 我们几个星期都回不来！

费米所说的点燃大气层是什么意思？
Now, what did Fermi mean by, uh, atmospheric ignition?
嗯 有那么一阵子 我们以为连锁反应似乎
Well, we had a moment where it looked like the chain reaction
永远也不会停止
from an atomic device might never stop.
燃烧了整个大气层
Setting fire to the atmosphere.
为什么费米要拿这来赌？
Why’s Fermi still taking side bets on it?
这叫黑色幽默
Call it gallows humor.
等等 你是说当我们按下那个按钮
Wait, are we saying there’s a chance that when we push that button,
我们可能会毁灭整个世界？
we destroy the world?
我们三年来的研究都不支持这个结论
Nothing in our research over three years supports that conclusion,
可能性微乎其乎
except as the most remote possibility.
-有多小？
-可能性几乎为零
-How remote?
-Chances are near-zero.
几乎为零？
Near-zero?
这是理论 你还想怎样？
What do you want from theory alone?
最好是零
