The Day America Almost Nuked Itself: The 1961 Goldsboro Incident #map #geography #maps #plane #planes

On January 24, 1961, a B-52 bomber broke apart midair over North Carolina-dropping two nuclear bombs.

One landed safely by parachute, but the other slammed into a field, nearly detonating. Three of its four safety switches failed. Only a single low-voltage switch stopped a blast 250 times more powerful than Hiroshima. The U.S. kept it secret for decades.

In 2013, declassified documents confirmed the terrifying truth: America was one faulty switch away from a nuclear disaster on its own soil.
