Mohenjo Daro was a city in Indus river valley that flourished some 5.000 years ago. The site was discovered in 1920 on the territory of today’s Pakistan. Archeologists working on the site found parts of thick city walls turned into glass. The only thing that can produce heat high enough to turn a brick wall into glass is an atomic explosion. Despite rich archeological discoveries in Mohenjo Daro, excavations in the area were stopped in early 1970 as it was found out that the whole site is highly radioactive. India, from times immemorial knew the existence of atoms and the atomic energy. In Upanishad Vedic scriptures there is an evidence to the statement: “Smaller than the smallest life, larger than the infinite Vast�, indicates that the greatest of the great is hidden in the smallest of the small which is the basis of the atomic energy.
