Nuclear Weapons - Broken Arrows & Accidents 1/2
Nuclear weapons are designed with great care to explode only when deliberately armed and fired. Nevertheless, there is always a possibility that, as a result of accidental circumstances, an explosion will take place inadvertently. Although all conceivable precautions are taken to prevent them, such accidents might occur in areas where weapons are assembled and stored, during the course of loading and transportation on the ground, or when actually in the delivery vehicle, e.g., an airplane or a missile." Atomic Energy Commission/Department of Defense, The Effects of Nuclear Weapons, 1962.

How Many Nuclear Weapons Do We Need?
Nuclear weapons are the most destructive weapons ever invented. However, since the end of the Cold War, they have received little attention from the highest levels of government. There are many questions that need examination, including:
* What role do nuclear weapons play in United States national security policy?
* How many nuclear weapons does the United States need?
* Is there a nuclear posture that can command bipartisan support?
* Is the elimination of nuclear weapons feasible or desirable?
Join New America Foundation's Nuclear Strategy and Nonproliferation Initiative and AAAS's Center for Science, Technology and Security Policy for a discussion of these and other important questions.

Nuclear Weapons Test-596-Chinese Test 22kt
This pure-fission U-235 implosion fission device named "596" was China's first nuclear test. The device weighed 1550 kg. No plutonium was available at this time.
596 is the codename of the People's Republic of China's first nuclear weapons test, detonated on October 16, 1964 at the Lop Nur test site. It was a uranium-235 implosion fission device and had a yield of 22 kilotons. With the test, China became the fifth nuclear power.
The People's Republic of China began developing nuclear weapons in the late 1950s with substantial Soviet assistance. The order for the Chinese nuclear weapons program, designated by the codename of "02", was given by Chairman Mao Tse Tsung himself, who believed that without a nuclear weapon China would not be taken seriously as a world power. The events of the...

VP Debate - Nuclear Weapons: What should trigger the use ...
http://www.c-spanarchives.org/library/vidLink.php?b=1222998977&e=1222999290&n=002
GOV. PALIN: Nuclear weaponry, of course, would be the be-all,
end-all of just too many people and too many parts of our planet.
So those dangerous regimes, again, cannot be allowed to acquire
nuclear weapons, period.
Our nuclear weaponry here in the U.S. is used as a deterrent, and
that's a safe, stable way to use nuclear weaponry. But for those
countries -- North Korea also under Kim Jong Il -- we have got to make
sure that we're putting the economic sanctions on these countries and
that we have friends and allies supporting us in this to make sure
that leaders like Kim Jong Il and Ahmadinejad are not allowed to
acquire, to proliferate or to use those nuclear weapons. It is that
important.
Can we talk...

Nuclear Weapons Test-Cannon-Grable 15KT
Upshot-Knothole Grable was a nuclear weapons test conducted by the United States as part of Operation Upshot-Knothole. Detonation of the associated nuclear weapon occurred shortly after its deployment at 8:30am PDT (1530 UTC) on May 25, 1953, in Area 5 of the Nevada Test Site. The codename Grable was chosen because the letter Grable is phonetic for, G, stands for "gun", since the warhead was a gun-type fission weapon. It was in the form of a shell, or artillery-fired atomic projectile (AFAP), the first of its kind.
Grable was only the second gun-type warhead ever detonated (the first was Little Boy, the weapon used against Hiroshima; all other atomic weapons were and are implosion-type weapons). The shell, designated a Mark 9 nuclear weapon, had a diameter of 280 mm (11.02 in), was 54.4...

Nuclear Weapons Newsreel - Nuclear Testing
A nuclear weapon derives its destructive force from nuclear reactions of fusion or fission. As a result, even a nuclear weapon with a small yield is significantly more powerful than the largest conventional explosives, and a single weapon is capable of destroying an entire city.
In the history of warfare, two nuclear weapons have been detonated — both by the United States, during the closing days of World War II. The first was detonated on the morning of 6 August 1945, when the United States dropped a uranium gun-type device code-named "Little Boy" on the Japanese city of Hiroshima. The second was detonated three days later when the United States dropped a plutonium implosion-type device code-named "Fat Man" on the city of Nagasaki. These bombings resulted in the immediate deaths of...

US Airforce Training Video-Nuclear Weapons Broken Arrows 1/2
The Strategic Air Command (SAC) was the operational establishment of the United States Air Force in charge of America's bomber-based and ballistic missile-based strategic nuclear arsenal from 1946 to 1992. SAC also controlled the infrastructure necessary to support their operations (such as tanker aircraft to fuel the bombers and, until 1959, fighter escorts).
On October 19, 1948 Lt. General Curtis Emerson LeMay took over as commander of SAC, and set about a dramatic rebuilding of the command's forces, as well as their mission. LeMay, who had masterminded the American attacks on the Japanese mainland during the war (including the firebombing of Tokyo and other cities), was a staunch believer in the power of strategic bombing: the destruction of an enemy's cities and industrial centers....
