Bat bomb video

Hi, I have these questions, I would very much appreciate your help with this:

In 1:45:

"Observers get to work comparing the
bat-bomb to conventional in centuries."

1)What is 'observers' in this context?

2)what does it mean 'comparing the bat-bomb to 'conventional in centuries'?

3) In 1:26: what is the meaning of 'taken up?'

"The weapon is taken up in a bomber
and released?"

Thank you.
