Summary

This quote suggests that while science was initially seen as a means to eliminate beliefs in the supernatural or magical, the development of nuclear weapons has ironically brought back a sense of the supernatural. It implies that the power and destructive capabilities of nuclear weapons transcend scientific understanding, akin to something magical or otherworldly. Therefore, while science had dismantled the belief in magic, it has unintentionally revived it through the awe-inspiring and incomprehensible nature of nuclear threats.
