Trinity’s atomic blast catalyzed the transformation. Amidst destructive turbulence and searing heat, sand was thrown up into the fireball, where it melted, reformed, and rained down upon the ground. Scientists discovered proof for this storm strewn all over in the form of trinitite beads — molten drops that solidified before they hit the ground. Years later, these pebbles are still surfacing as ants excavate them from their tunnels.

Anyone with a science type of mindset happen to know how this ‘atomic bomb’ glass differs from glass produced by lightning strikes - especially when lightning strikes hit sand?
