Summary
| Description |
English: Weapon No. 1, a Mark 39 Mod 2 thermonuclear weapon, as found by the explosive ordnance disposal team after the Goldsboro accident in 1961. The text indicates where the "pull valve rod" and the "pull-out rods" were extracted, which began the firing sequence of the weapon.
Note that another version of this image exists. That image, however, was photographically edited to be wider (probably for a television screen) using the "clone" tool on the left and right edges of it. This appears to be the correct dimensions of the original image. |
