For Sale, a high-quality, authentic specimen of Red Trinitite, also know as "Atomic Glass" This rare material was created on July 16,1945 during the Trinity nuclear test in New Mexico, when the intense heat of the first atomic blast melted the desert sand into glass. Trinitite is a historic artifact of the Manhattan Project. Since the site was bulldozed and buried in 1953, genuine specimens-especially the rare red and magnetic varieties-have become increasingly difficult for collectors to find. $65 B/O
