Nuclear Officials Seek Approval for Warhead

Posted by Matt in February 7th, 2007

Design Would Require No Live Testing.

The NNSA requested $88 million in the fiscal 2008 Energy Department budget — up from $27 million this year — to complete detailed planning with the Navy based on a design produced in December by the nation’s two nuclear weapons laboratories. The new funds would support design concept testing and could lead to production of the warhead for the Navy’s D5 missile, 24 of which are carried on each U.S. Trident submarine.

Castle Bravo Nuclear Test
Castle Bravo was the code name given to the first U.S. test of a so-called dry fuel thermonuclear device, detonated on March 1, 1954 at Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands, by the United States, as the first test of Operation Castle (a longer series of tests of various devices). Unexpected fallout from the detonation—intended to be a secret test—poisoned the crew of Daigo Fukuryū Maru ("Lucky Dragon No. 5"), a Japanese fishing boat, and created international concern about atmospheric thermonuclear testing. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castle_bravo

Nuclear Weapons Test-Castle-Bravo 15mt
Castle Bravo was the code name given to the first U.S. test of a so-called dry fuel thermonuclear device, detonated on March 1, 1954 at Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands, by the United States, as the first test of Operation Castle (a longer series of tests of various devices). Unexpected fallout from the detonation—intended to be a secret test—poisoned the crew of Daigo Fukuryū Maru ("Lucky Dragon No. 5"), a Japanese fishing boat, and created international concern about atmospheric thermonuclear testing. The bomb used lithium deuteride fuel for the fusion stage, unlike the cryogenic liquid deuterium used as fuel for the fusion stage of the U.S. first-generation Ivy Mike device, which, being the size of a small office building, was an impracticable weapon for use at war. The bomb tested...

NUCLEAR SHARKS I - Final Mission :: [Part 1 of 5]
The History Channel Documentary 'Under way on nuclear power.' These historic words are spoken on January 17, 1955 by Hyman G. Rickover from the bridge of the world's first nuclear submarine, the USS Nautilus. The Nautilus owes her existence to Rickover, a brilliant, uncompromising Admiral in the US Navy with a totally original idea: the nuclear submarine. Without Rickover, the nuclear submarine would not have existed for at least another decade; without Rickover, the Cold War would not have escalated into a battle waged not on land, but in the silent deep. The Soviet Union is years behind the United States in nuclear submarine development. The United States will reach the North Pole in a nuclear submarine before the Russians have even mastered their own design. But by 1960, the...
