Summary
[edit]
| Description |
It was sobering to see this. It is: "B-53 Gravity Bomb High-yield (multi-megaton) internally carried, heavy strategic, thermonuclear weapon. Status: retired This training unit is on loan to the Atomic Testing Museum from the United States Air Force." National Nuclear Security Agency We visited the Atomic Testing Museum wich is in the Frank H. Rogers Science and Technology Building, Las Vegas Nevada. This is the only area where photography is permitted - it is an extensive museum, primarily devoted to Nevada National Security Site (also known as Nevada Test Site). "Between 1951 and 1992, there were a total of 928 announced nuclear tests at Nevada Test Site. Of those, 828 were underground." (While this museum is affiliated with the Smithsonian - and presumably the US government, photography was permitted in only a very limited area, I would guess for security and also publicity reasons.) It seems tho me that that such a museum should be open access - but it's not. jtz 217 |
