- This film will depict some of the highlights of this urgent and complex operation with emphasis on the participation of the LLNL. After Russians conducted over thirty nuclear events in the atmosphere , including one with a yield of 54 megatons hydrogen bomb in1961 #NuclearWeapons #Documentary #AtomicBomb #Atomic #Bomb #History #Science #Nuclear #Detonation #Thermonuclear #Radiation #Doomsday #Movie #Rare #Footage #HydrogenBomb #Hydrogen #Energy #Film #Entertainment #Effect #Underwater #NuclearExplosion #NuclearTesting #AlbertEinstein #Oppenheimer #LosAlamos #NationalSecurityScience #Trump #2020 #Election
This is, by far and away, the best video atomic tests channel has published, it is stunning in detail. Thank you very much.
Fantastic work ATC - 👍
Thank You.
I’m just saying
I agree. More like this one please 👏👏
Phenomenal content. This is what I come here for. Especially the EG&G photography segment in this post regarding "Teller Light" (i.e. fireball formation and early physics package timing sequence). The commentary from LLNL (I assume) is also great...way better than the 'Reed Hadley' style early 50s narration you get with most of these.
Super upload! More like this please.
I worked for EG&G. The group that did the triggering, test instrumentation, and photography was called "Energy Measurements" - which is exactly what they were doing for the atomic testing, while the name sounded benign and industrial.
Absolutely exceptional footage! Keep it up, mate! 😁👍
The narration sounds like it's from the late 70s or early to mid-80s, It clearly does not sound like the kind of narration or music from the 60s.
First thing I noticed.
It also has a "school" feel to it. Like a film you would watch in history class.
The filming was done in the early 1960's but the soundtrack was produced much later. That go-go style music with synthesizers probably dates from the 70's. Given that industrial films usually feature low budget, third-rate talent this soundtrack could date from as late as the 1980's.
Also, comparing this narration and accent to today, its uniquely 70's and 80s vibe. This film could have been converted to VHS. Remember back then, in the early 80's teacher would have a TV mounted on a standing dolly, with a VHS bolted to the stand, because it was very valuable, a vhs player. This great vhs tapes could have been made available at some American libraries (?) but I doubt it. I appreciate very much viewing content like this. Thank you ATC
@@marioragucci1009 We had a dedicated video room, you could not go in there without a teacher present, all because they had 6, yes 6 VHS recorders stolen by someone.
Incredibly detailed and informative. My compliments!
21:23 Axial Mode Helix Antennas (circularly polarized) probably for weapon telemetry reception. Interesting film thanks for uploading!
@Bernard de Fontaines Circularly polarized antennas suffer much less from signal polarisation fading (flutter) than compared to a linearly polarized antenna system. They're often used in high altitude or satellite applications in a transmission and/or reception path.
You can just hear the clinking of the gin and tonics in the officer's lounge: "How about the heat here, old boy?" "what about the natives?" "Oh... they get to watch the whole show....quite close up I hear...." D.A., NYC
Absolutely spot on.
The two B-52s that were used were B-52Ds.
Thanks man, wait for this :)
WOW first time view this, thanks !! Fantastic images.
Again another wrinkle in the brain 🧠!! Thanks again for putting out this information!!!
So nice of them to let the locals stay in their homes and watch. Very thoughtful as usual.
Fantastic! Thanks ATC!!!
Great video, but whoever chose the music didn't do very well.
Ugh, I hate these things, I pray that no country's leader decides to push the little red buttons
Did you add some music to this footage yourself? Sounds really nice!
He must have. I Shazamed the ambient track at 17:49 and found "Zodiac Structures" by NoMBe (ruclips.net/video/ubK6_pqwim0/видео.html).
The Nukes had changed Time forever as just 1 second became an eternity !
CONGRATULATIONS !!! THANK'S
Urgency to resume testing came from who?
15:24 - Radioactive barbecue.
Where did they get that music? It's better than every Taylor swift song
The moratorium was the only thing that made sense.
The thing was we knew the destructive power and knew how to build small devices. This was saber rattling
Yes and no. Dominic data was important as a cross reference to several operations up to and including 'musketeer'. The ultimate goal was synthetic odeling that could produce asymmetric primary designs for small thermonuclear weapons for the Trident, MX, and MMIII programs...which it did successfully. Regarding detectable yield? Yes...sabre rattling. Justly so.
11:14 how did that cloud just appear out of nowhere?
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mushroom_cloud gives a good explanation of how the mushroom cloud forms. That weird, narrow, vertical cloud that starts climbing up towards the mushroom at 11:55 is really strange, though. No idea what caused that.
Yeah ... it rises like an obelisk. It's like a funnel cloud , upside down. Noooice !
@@glennallen496 Sorry, I meant the little white cloud in the foreground. It kinda just appears out of nowhere.
The thin white stem you mentioned must be air sucked up into the torus of the mushroom cloud, and moisture freezing into tiny ice crystals.
@@maksphoto78 It's a Wilson cloud formed by the condensation of moisture as a result of the sudden pressure drop that follows the shockwave as it passes through the air. Here's a more obvious and very famous example of the phenomenon at work - ruclips.net/video/YUd7tgIirBI/видео.htmlsi=mQonNCIEMTKTDbSS&t=33
The earth has a dome. the moon landing was fake
How can they land on the moon if they cant even break the barrier
SolarSystem
We are doomed by the stupidity of the past.

Is that A Something
Plz comment me
Strange to hear such a calm and casual voice describing a deadly weapon.
Why do you think he should have described it all? Like a drunk? Like a mentally ill? How exactly? Obviously, nuclear weapons testing was normal in the period in question, as was normal for any other nation, and these videos were just official work reports, so they were done in the best possible way. Guys this is just history.
Those were the days. Men were men, and nuclear weapons were in the multi-megaton range. Dominic demonstrated some of the most advanced thermonuclear weapons the world would ever know.
It would have been great if they could've tested all these weapons in our local landfills
54 Megatons or 5.4 Megatons ;) I love your content, thank you for preserving this aspect of our history!
Just keep belting them out, ATC! Always a treat every week. Much thanks. :)
Which year is this? doesn’t sound like it was recorded in 1962 at the time of operation Dominic judging by the commentary.
" The local area and wildlife are really nice etc etc.......until we incinerate them at several thousand degrees and/or irradiate them"
7:03 Mark 36 my beloved
23:55 Almost brings a tear to the eye.
My father John Antonucci was involved with this Nuclear bomb test in 1962
The music is amazing. Music names, please.
There is more information in this narration than in some of the other Dominic reports I've watched. Thanks. In 1964, I was loading some of these on SAC bombers.
Christmas island had to have been an amazing duty station... I'm jealous
Thanks for the upload.
Last video it's cool at the detonation time
For the love of God could you please have Slim Pickens do the voice !!
