Скачать или смотреть History Facts: Two Nuclear Bombs Fell on America

In January 1961, a U.S. Air Force B-52 bomber broke apart mid-air near Goldsboro, North Carolina, accidentally releasing two Mark 39 hydrogen bombs, each with a yield far greater than Hiroshima. One bomb went through five of six arming steps, deploying its parachute and triggering firing mechanisms. Only a single low-voltage safety switch prevented detonation. The incident was immediately classified under Cold War secrecy. Local residents were never informed of the danger. In 2013, declassified documents released by the National Security Archive confirmed that the failure of one switch prevented a nuclear explosion on U.S. soil.

This series focusses upon lesser-known historical facts that were hidden, ignored, or only revealed years later.
