DescriptionPlumbbob Rainier 011.jpg |
English: Schematic drawing of the tunnel in which the Plumbbob Rainier deep underground nuclear test is scheduled for detonation at 10:00 a.m. Thursday, September 19, 1957. Length of the tunnel is about 2,000 feet. The hook at its end was designed so that explosive force will seal off the non-curved portion of the tunnel nearest the detonation before gases and fission fragments can be vented around the curve of the tunnel's hook. The objective is to contain the detonation and avoid producing fallout. |
