@wellerstein do u have the numbers on this one?
@AstuteDoofus Little Boy had 64 kg of uranium metal. With the other volume, it is around 940,000 kg of hex, but this may undercount it.

@AstuteDoofus (The big number was hex processed by K-25 through 1946, but undercounts the fact that S-50 removed some. So it is hand-wavy.)Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
