When and where has this picture been taken?Answer: This is the Trinity test site in New Mexico after the explosion of the first ever atomic bomb. The people looking on include Robert Oppenheimer (the one in the hat) and General Groves (the one in the far right). Karthik, Srivats, Mohan, Raghu, Iam and Hirak got it. Well done and apologies for denying you your daily fix (as Hirak puts it).

The Trinity test site after the successful test of the atomic bomb. Gen. Leslie Groves, Robert Oppenheimer and co. are looking at the remains of the tower after the explosion.
Ground Zero of the Trinity site...
Project Trinity, test of Nuclear bomb at white sands proving grounds, New Mexico
July 1945 at Alamogordo, New Mexico after Project Trinity.
Oppenheimer with Gen Groves inspecting the Trinity test sites.
Ok, I'll make a cheap guess judging by the latest news, the mountains in the back and what looks to me like charred twigs - something to do with a controlled fire inspection in some national forest/park?
Not fair! We need our daily fix!
General Groves is the person right next to Oppenheimer, not the man on the far right (this is probably a typo). The man at the back is physicist Victor Weisskopf.
