It was a 6.2-kilogram sphere of plutonium nicknamed "Rufus" until it killed two scientists and earned a new name: The Demon Core.
In this video, we uncover the chilling true story of the Manhattan Project’s deadliest accidents. While the atomic bombs changed history, this sphere of plutonium was sitting in a lab in Los Alamos, waiting for a mistake. We’ll break down the physics behind the infamous "blue flash" that doomed Louis Slotin and Harry Daghlian, and explain exactly what happens to the human body during acute radiation poisoning.
From the slip of a screwdriver to the reckless experiment known as "tickling the dragon’s tail," discover how a fraction of a second changed nuclear safety forever.
