Three Atomic Powers Set Off Tests
Three of the world's major nuclear powers conducted tests on the same day. China's atmospheric detonation measured about three megatons, while the Soviet Union and the United States carried out large underground and atmospheric blasts, respectively, with total yields surpassing nine million tons of TNT. The AEC reported seismic signals for the Soviet test at about six megatons and noted it was the largest underground test since 1963. Chinese officials stated their test aimed to encourage allies, while pledging China would not be the first to use nuclear weapons.
