  • U.S. Atmospheric Nuclear Tests
    U.S. NUCLEAR TESTING FROM PROJECT TRINITY TO THE PLOWSHARE PROGRAM [From For the Record – A History of the Nuclear Test Personnel Review Program, 1978-1986, by Abby A. Johnson, et al, Defense Nuclear Agency, DNA 6041F, 1986. The United States conducted Project TRINITY, the world's first nuclear detonation, in 1945. From 1946 to 1963, when the limited nuclear test ban treaty was signed, the U.S. conducted 18 atmospheric nuclear test series, identified below as operations, and a program of testing called PLOWSHARE. In addition, the U.S. staged safety experiments to determine the weapons' susceptibility to fission due to accidents in storage and transport. This chapter provides historical summaries of the tests, listed below in the order in which they occurred and are addressed: · Project TRINITY, 1945 (CONUS) · Operation CROSSROADS, 1946 (Oceanic) · Operation SANDSTONE, 1948 (Oceanic) · Operation RANGER, 1951 (CONUS) · Operation GREENHOUSE, 1951 (Oceanic) · Operation BUSTER-JANGLE, 1951 (CONUS) · Operation TUMBLER-SNAPPER, 1952 (CONUS) · Operation IVY, 1952 (Oceanic) · Operation UPSHOT-KNOTHOLE, 1953 (CONUS) · Operation CASTLE, 1954 (Oceanic) · Operation TEAPOT, 1955 (CONUS) · Operation WIGWAM, 1955 (Oceanic) · Operation REDWING, 1956 (Oceanic) · Operation PLUMBBOB, 1957 (CONUS) · Operation HARDTACK I, 1958 (Oceanic) · Operation ARGUS, 1958 (Oceanic) · Operation HARDTACK II, 1958 (CONUS) · Safety Experiments, 1955-1958 (CONUS) · Operation DOMINIC I, 1962 (Oceanic) · Operation DOMINIC II, 1962 (CONUS) · PLOWSHARE Program, 1961-1962 (CONUS). Most of the oceanic tests were conducted at the Pacific Proving Ground, which consisted principally of the Enewetak and Bikini Atolls in the northwestern Marshall Islands of the Pacific Ocean. The Marshall Islands are in the easternmost part of Micronesia.

    The Rockets’ Red Glare: The impact of technology on U.S. nuclear strategy from Eisenhower to Carter Brent Thomas Gerchicoff A Thesis in the Department of Political Science Presented in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts at Concordia University Montreal, Quebec, Canada © Brent Thomas Gerchicoff, 2012 CONCORDIA UNIVERSITY School of Graduate Studies This is to certify that the thesis prepared By: Brent Thomas Gerchicoff Entitled: The Rockets’ Red Glare: Testing the Impact of Technology on U.S. Nuclear Strategy from Eisenhower to Carter and submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Public Policy and Public Administration) complies with the regulations of the University and meets the accepted standards with respect to originality and quality. Signed by the final examining committee: ______________________________________ Chair Dr. Jean-Francois Mayer ______________________________________ Examiner Dr. Julian Schofield ______________________________________ Examiner Dr. Elizabeth Bloodgood ______________________________________ Supervisor Dr. Julian Schofield Approved by ________________________________________________ Chair of Department or Graduate Program Director ________________________________________________ Dean of Faculty Date August 29th, 2012 ii Abstract The Manhattan Project redefined the landscape of international security. The advent of the nuclear age, in many ways, reshaped the prospect of great power politics and the very nature of war itself. While nuclear weapons have altered the security environment, the literature that revolves around the subject is limited to a few select topics: arms control, deterrence, normative assertions on the (im)morality of nuclear weapons, the routines and potential accidents of organizational behaviour, and the boondoggles of ballistic missile defense. The literature fails to address how the technical operating requirements of nuclear weapons affect nuclear strategy.

  • Nuclear Testing
    MATERIALS IN THE EISENHOWER LIBRARY HOLDINGS RELATING TO NUCLEAR TESTING Introduction The Eisenhower Library holds a large quantity of documentation pertaining to nuclear testing and nuclear weapons policy in general. Some of this is readily located under headings such as “Atomic Energy Commission” or “Nuclear Testing.” Much of this information, however, is found within chronologically arranged files and considerable searching onsite is necessary to cover this topic thoroughly. A considerable portion of the relevant documentation is security classified, either in full or in part, and therefore remains closed to research. However, a substantial quantity of documentation has been opened and researchers can find useful information on nuclear testing, radiation and related topics in the Library’s holdings. This guide lists and briefly describes nuclear related materials by major collection with the emphasis on nuclear testing, fallout, radiation, and national and international concerns and discussions of these topics. A. DWIGHT D. EISENHOWER’S PAPERS AS PRESIDENT (Ann Whitman file) 1. Administration Series. Boxes 4-5, Atomic Energy Commission. The place to begin most nuclear policy related research projects is probably Boxes 4-5 which contain 25 file folders entitled “Atomic Energy Commission” covering the period 1953-61. These folders contain numerous letters from Lewis Strauss and John McCone to the president, presidential letters and statements, memoranda of conversation, reports, and printed material. Subjects include underwater tests, nuclear tests in the Pacific and in Nevada with correspondence detailing tests and their purposes with a few references to forces mobilized at proving grounds. Also found here is the report “Human Effects of Nuclear Weapons Development” issued in November 1956 and a memorandum of the President’s meeting with the committee which produced the report.

This effort to declassify this report has been accomplished specifically to support the Department of Defense Nuclear Test Personnel Review (NTPR) Program. The objective is to facilitate studies of the low levels of radiation received by some individuals during the atinospheric nuclear test program by making as nuch information as possible available to all interested parties. The material which has been deleted is all currently classified as Restricted Data or Formerly Restricted Data under the provision of the Atomic Energy Act of 1954. (as amecded) or is Yational Security Information. This report has been reproduced directly from available copies of the original material. The locations from which material has been deleted is generally obvious by the spacings dlid "holes" in the text. Thus the context of the material riL-!?ted is identified to assist the redder in the determination of ahether the deleted information is germane to his study. It is the belief of the individuals who have participated in preparing this report by deleting the classified material and of the Defense Uuclear Agency that the report accurately portrays the contents of the original and that the deleted jnaterial is of little or no significance to studies into the mounts or types of radiation received by any individuals during the atmospheric nuclear test program.

  • Introduction Five of the First Six Nuclear Tests Conducted by the United
    Introduction Five of the first six nuclear tests conducted by the United States occurred in the far reaches of the Pacific Ocean. Almost immediately, scientists and military planners discovered that logistics, weather, security and safety concerns required the need for a continental test site. The effort of transporting, supplying and housing a nuclear test task force in the middle of the Pacific was more than originally anticipated. In addition to the communist insurgency in Korea, the need for a continental proving ground was evident. The Armed Forces Special Weapons Project conducted a top-secret feasibility study, code named Nutmeg, to identify the best location for a test site. The study concluded that arid southwest of the United States was the ideal location. In December, 1950, the Nevada Proving Grounds was established. Thirty one days later, the first atmospheric test was conducted in Nevada. Atmospheric Testing at the Nevada Test Site Operation Ranger was the first atmospheric nuclear weapons test series conducted by the Atomic Energy Commission at the Nevada Test Site, now known at the Nevada National Security Site (NNSS). This 1951 series consisted of five nuclear tests, all of which were airdrops detonated at heights of about 1,000-1,400 feet. Operation Upshot-Knothole was unique in that the first test, Annie, was conducted for the Federal Civil Defense Administration (FCDA) in 1953. In preparation for the test, the Climax crates a fireball at the Nevada Test Site in 1953. FCDA constructed "a typical American community" complete Climax was an airdrop, weapons-related test. with houses, utility stations, automobiles, furniture, appliances, food, and even mannequins simulating the people who might live in the town.
