The new (circa 1951) GE jet engine plant at Lockland, Ohio. Engines being assembled. Various aircraft using GE engines
Views of the new (1951) GE jet engine assembly plant at Lockland Ohio. Animated description and U.S. map showing numerous suppliers across the country that contribute parts for the jet engines assembled at the GE Lockland plant.Views inside the plant, with engines being assembled. GE staff members, including chief engineer, Donald F. Warner, are seen in the plant. Various U.S. jet warplanes taking off, including: Hughes XF-91; North American F-86D Sabrejet ; Martin XB-51; North American B-45 Tornado; Boeing B-47 Stratojet bomber; and Convair B-36.
General Electric plant and operations at Lockland, Ohio. Advances in jet propulsion. Jet airplanes of the early 1950s.
Animated illustration of rapid improvements in GE jet engine designs. Views of the GE plant at Lockland, Ohio. Interior of a jet passenger liner airplane, as envisioned in 1951. View of flight attendant or stewardess in uniform, delivering tray of food to a passenger in the cabin of an aircraft in flight. View of Dr. Sanford A. Moss, standing in front of the Collier Trophy, looking at his award certificate, in 1941. The trophy was awarded to him and the U.S. Army Air Corps for development of the aircraft engine supercharger. Discussion of Atomic Energy Commission, U.S. Air Force, General Electric and Convair ideas about building an atomic powered airplane. Views of the GE gas turbine laboratory. Montage of jet aircraft of the early 1950s. Among those seen are: Convair SF-92 delta wing fighter plane; The Chase XCG-20A 4-engine cargo plane; North American F-86 sabrejet; Grumman F9F panther; F-89 Scorpion; and B-36 bomber, plus several unidentified experimental aircraft. Several scenes of B-47s in rocket assisted takeoffs.
United States Nuclear Test Operation Ivy: King test
United States conducts nuclear tests for Operation King at Enewetak Atoll (sometimes spelled Eniwetok or Eniewetok) in the Marshall Islands. Footage of King test, which involved a prototype of a Mk 18 Super Oralloy bomb ("SOB") dropped by a B-36H bomber. Broken clouds in sky. Whiteness of blast from atomic bomb obscures the area. Shock wave spreads over the water, the mushroom cloud with its thin trunk extends up from the water, top of the cloud becomes very white. Mushroom cloud churns up further skyward.
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). (Left to right) Chief engineering and firing commander, Stan Burris -- later the leader of the Strategic Ballistic Missile development, including Polaris and later editions; retired as CEO of Rockwell Aerospace -- military firing and security commander, Colonel Richard Lunger, and ultracold refrigeration engineering commander for thermonuclear liquid fuel state monitoring, Robert Gibney. The intense nuclear radiation ignited the atmosphere around the device, creating a fireball 4.2 miles across. A remote firing control was created, using a televison tower beam signal to safely trigger the detonation from the USS Estes, approximately 35 miles south/southeast of the detonation. White hot device remnant specks are visible throughout the surface of the fireball. Shockwave from Operation Ivy Mike explosion is seen spreading across the water, then a white mushroom cloud spreading above. View of crew on ship deck observing blast. Device yield: 10.4 megatons.
A documentary shows Admiral Hyman G. Rickover explaining about USS Nautilus SSN-571 with the help of a model submarine
A documentary depicts Admiral Hyman G. Rickover explaining the first nuclear powered submarine, USS Nautilus, with the help of a model submarine in the United States. He explains how the nuclear power works. A woman assistant in uniform opens the top of the model submarine. Adm Rickover explains the mechanics of the nuclear power using a pointer. He points at a uranium filled container and a boiler that produces steam for the turbine to start. Adm Rickover demonstrates the opening the turbine valve. He further talks about how the power plant works. The assistant places a shield near the power plant to show how one is used to protect crew from atomic radiation.

A documentary shows a United States official explaining about the first nuclear powered submarine, USS Nautilus, with the help of a model submarine in the United States. He explains how the nuclear power works. The official talks about protection against radiation. He explains the mechanics of the nuclear power using a stick. He points at a uranium filled container and a boiler that produces steam for the turbine to start. The official demonstrates the operation of the power plant by opening and closing the turbine valve. He further talks about how the power plant works. Arrows on the pipes of the power plant.
