The trinity test took place on the Alamogordo Bombing and Gunnery Range, about 230 miles south of the Manhattan Project's headquarters at Los Alamos new mexico. According to the Manhattan Project's data, San Antonio was located inside ground zero. This is a story about two young people, ages 7 and 9 that you were probably never meant to know about. Reme Baca and Jose Padilla lived in ground zero, near where the atomic bomb was detonated on May 16, 1945. They became part of our Governments Human Radiation Esxperiment. This is also where, thirty days later, in San Antonio's own backyard, the recovery of an alien craft took place involving the Army-Air Corps in mid August of 1945, witnessed by Reme, Jose and Lt. Colonel William Brophy Sr. who was placed in charge of a space craft recovery on the Padilla Ranch in August of 1945 by his Commander.
