Atomic weapons to be tested at new Nevada site
The Atomic Energy Commission announced plans to test atomic weapons on a guarded Las Vegas range, marking the first U S nuclear explosions since 1945. President Truman authorized use of part of the Air Force Las Vegas range, with strict security and radiation precautions and continued use of Eniwetok for other tests. Senator McMahon praised the move for speed and security, noting no settlement is within 30 miles of the site.
