Detonation of liquid thermonuclear device MIKE, the first hydrogen bomb, at Enewetak Atoll, Marshall Islands.

Full-scale thermonuclear test of ultracold liquid deuterium, codenamed Ivy MIKE at Enewetak Atoll in the Pacific Proving Ground in the Marshall Islands (sometimes spelled Eniwetok or Eniewetok).
