>>Do you really believe absolutely EVERYTHING was destroyed from the blast?<<
I have no reason to believe otherwise. >> I know a nuclear explosion is powerful but come on. Don't you think it's possible something larger than the grain of sand, macroscopic particles, and isotopic evidence survived?<< Just about anything is possible, but so far no one has come up with anything bigger that I know of. There's an awful lot of energy involved here. After seeing and reading the reports about the massive rock fall in Yosemite park about twenty years ago, where a lot of the rock material became mostly powder, I can believe just microscopic material was left over. Here we are talking about a fall of about 2000 feet. The concussion blew over many full grown trees. It doesn't take much of my imagination to picture what could happen with something a bit bigger traveling over 12 miles/second suddenly hitting a solid resistance of air.
