'We embarked on this project for several reasons, all centered on our fascination with the history of nuclear weapons testing and our interest in making more of the details of these complex operations available to the general public. We focused largely on the people. We have enormous respect and admiration for those who devoted major parts of their lives to the development and understanding of nuclear weapons.'
