I'm still a nerd.

I watched the beginning of this movie, which shows a guy enriching plutonium for a nuclear weapon, and all I could think about were the zillions of inaccuracies.

• The plutonium was a lime-green LIQUID.
• They bombarded the plutonium with electrons. Whaaaattt??????
• Enough static electricity was created in the air to make visible sparks between fingers and metal objects.
• There was a magnet involved??
• There was a laser involved--even now, laser techniques for enrichment aren't viable.
• Nitrogen triiodide would have made a bigger boom and been more red, less blue.

Sigh.
