Bikini Atoll graphic shows atomic bomb mushroom cloud and fallout pattern.
Graphic of Bikini Atoll nuclear explosion mushroom cloud with markings indicating 30,000 feet on cloud with +97 of fallout above that point. Topographical display shows fallout pattern from blast.
Mushroom cloud from the Cold War era Totsk nuclear bomb test in the Soviet Union.
Totsk nuclear exercise (codename “Snowball”) undertaken by the Soviet Army in Orenburg, Soviet Union during the Cold War. An immense mushroom cloud forms after a 40-kiloton (170 TJ) RDS-4 atomic bomb detonates 1,150 ft. (350 meters) above the Totskoye range.
Engineers and scientists working on development work during the construction of the Sodium Reactor Experiment
Atomics International engineers working on test and development work on reactor components during the construction of the Sodium Reactor Experiment nuclear power plant at the Santa Susana Field Laboratory in California, United States. A scientist studies the weight of a metal tube. Scientists study mockup fuel elements irradiated in the thermal column of a research reactor. A hydraulic loop was used to simulate sodium flow conditions on top of a tower. Scientist inserts a hydraulic loop. Sodium flowing as seen from the hydraulic loop experiment. Full scale mockup of the fuel handling system was checked mechanically. A prototype coolant pump being studied using a temperature sodium loop. A scientist pushes some buttons of a machine. Machine gauge measures temperature in Fahrenheit. A scientist in protective suit turns a wheel. Scientists lower heavy tube.
Construction of the Sodium Reactor Experiment nuclear power plant in Southern California
The Santa Susana Mountains in Southern California. Bulldozers clear trees in the Santa Susana Mountains. Explosives blasting cleared land to build the foundation of the planned Sodium Reactor Experiment nuclear power plant at the Santa Susana Field Laboratory. Construction workers build the core cavity liner of the Sodium Reactor Experiment nuclear power plant. The core cavity liner of the sodium reactor before concrete is poured to make the foundation. A man welds steel pipes in the outer surface of the core cavity. A large circular hole for the inlet and outlet piping. Workers set up basic structures after the core cavity liner and foundation are built. Some workers are digging near concrete columns. A worker pushes a wheelbarrow. Concrete poured into wheelbarrow. The wheelbarrow pours concrete into a backhoe. Workers pour wet concrete into the foundation. Animation depicts four concentric rings installed at the bottom of the cavity liner. A ladder inside a tank. Workers install blocks of thermal insulation materials. A crane carries the outer tank made from low-alloy steel. Workers carefully lower the outer tank into the core cavity. Stacked thermal shield rings at the construction site. The “Pacific” crane lowers a thermal shield ring into place. The crane brings the stainless-steel core tank. The crane lowers the core tank into the core cavity. Stainless steel bellows is put into place to seal the core tank and outer tank. Animation shows how bellows maintain the sodium vapors within the core area. Workers in white protective uniforms install the moderator and reflector units under conditions of extreme cleanliness. A worker uses a high-capacity vacuum cleaner to clean parts. The workers proceed to install the 75-ton top shield. Scientists monitor the pumps that monitor the rate of coolant flow in the sodium loops. A scientist inspects the fuel elements installed in the core. Scientists working at a control room of the Sodium Reactor Experiment nuclear power plant. They monitor the reactor stability. Timer connected to the control rod. Various meters measuring various powers such as electrical, thermal, and main primary sodium flow, steam flow rate. A Honeywell meter measuring the reactor inlet temperature. A sodium inlet temperature meter. A scientist measures shielding effectiveness during power runs. The scientist inspects shield blocks above the radioactive coolant galleries and over the reactor core.
King Saud and Royal Party on Destroyer, USS Murphy(DD-603), preparing to board Cruiser,USS Quincy (CA-71), in Great Bitter Lake
King Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia (also called King Abdulaziz) with party members on a U.S. Destroyer, USS Murphy (DD603) in the Great Bitter Lake of the Suez Canal. Views of the the Great Bitter Lake from shipboard. Views of the USS Quincy, from the USS Murphy, as it pulls alongside to tie up with the Quincy. Sailors send lines between the two ships to secure them. A gangplank is set between the two vessels. Officers on board the USS Quincy coordinate the activities. A marine honor guard on deck make their rifles ready for gun salute. Views of Royal Party on deck of the USS Murphy. U.S. sailors man a 40mm "pom pom" antiaircraft gun. They fire the gun in salute. (World War II period).
An Arabian sail boat approaches, is towed,and ties up to USS Murphy in Suez Canal. Goat is butchered on fantail.
An Arabian sail boat with a lanteen sail approaches the Destroyer, which secures it with a line and takes it in tow. View of sailboat in tow with sail furled and secured. U.S. sailors on deck of the USS Murphy, check the tow line. A U.S. navy officer, with member of the Royal Party, discuss the tow line which is taut and visible several feet away from them over the water. Captain and officers of the USS Murphy gathered together on deck. The Arab sailing vessel tied up alongside the USS Murphy, dead in the water. Arabian butcher boards the USS Murphy and slaughters Goat and drains its blood into bucket on the fantail, near depth charge racks. Large group of U.S. sailors watch. The butcher trusses up the goat and dresses it. Views from receiving vessel of a U.S. Fleet Oiler replenishing operation, with fuel line evident.(Footage shot while King Ibn Saud of Saudi Arabia, also called King Abdulaziz, was aboard the Destroyer USS Murphy (DD-603), underway in the Suez Canal for the Yalta Conference in World War 2.)
