And then when he went to the little porthole window where all this light was coming in, you know, he had to squint his eyes, but he looked outside and he couldn't tell where this light was really coming from or what it was. But he could clearly see it was coming from the west and the sun rises in the east. So really, whatever this light was, it was not the sun.

At the same time, the rest of Oishi's crewmates who were in this room with him, they were also starting to wake up and kind of looking around like, what's going on here? And then without even saying anything, all of them just rushed out of the room and ran upstairs to the top deck to look around and see what was going on.

And when they got up there, Oishi looked out towards the west where these lights were up in the sky, and he couldn't really see a clear point of origin. It wasn't like there was an obvious thing creating these lights. It was more like the western sky was just unbelievably bright and yellow and orange, and it seemed like the light was kind of hovering over where the Marshall Islands would be.

And so everyone's thinking, you know, is it possible this is a volcano eruption? You know, is there something else going on here? And then as the crew is just watching in stunned silence at all these crazy lights in the sky, the lights kind of began to fade and they turned blue and purple. And then they just went away and the entire crew was pitched back into darkness.

And as everyone's just standing around having no idea what to make of these lights, the oldest crew member on board, who was 40 years old, he said the one thing that everybody kind of in the back of their mind was thinking about but didn't want to say. The oldest crew member just said, atomic bomb.

Just nine years earlier, the United States had dropped two atomic bombs on Japan to end World War II. Now, Oishi, who was Japanese, he was 11 years old at the time this happened, and it had a profound impact on his life and his family's lives, his friends, I mean, anybody who was alive when this happened. It changed everything.

But as Oishi and the rest of his crew were kind of staring out to the west, which was all dark at this point, Oishi thought, you know, there's no way this could have been an atomic bomb. Number one, World War II is over, so there's no reason a bomb would get dropped again.
