Third Atomic Blast Delayed By Weather At Yucca Flat

LAS VEGAS NEV The third and perhaps most potent blast of the 1955 atomic test series was called off last night due to adverse weather. Preparations for the 500 foot tower blast at Yucca Flat went ahead for 5 35 am but cloud and wind conditions worsened. The shot, set to begin the series February 15, was expected to yield about 50 kilotons. A weather briefing was planned to assess firing tomorrow. The AEC labeled it a major Livermore California laboratory effort amid speculation it could be an improved hydrogen weapon trigger. Livermore specialists note no hydrogen weapons are tested there. The thermonuclear H bomb requires an initial atomic trigger.
