Trinitite, also known as atomsite or Alamogordo glass, is the glassy residue left on the desert floor after the plutonium-based Trinity nuclear bomb test on July 16, 1945, near Alamogordo, New Mexico. Trinitite has been found in substantial quantities at sites in Egypt, Libya, Saudi Arabia, southern Australia, and Tasmania, where they are also known as "desert glass". The soil that was fused into a glass-like consistency by the heat from the Trinity Test is called Trinitite.
Some say it was found where Sodom was possibly located.
