Final Test of Atomic Series in Nevada Desert
The 14th and final nuclear shot of the 1955 series lit the western sky near Yucca Flat. Supersonic jets simulated bomb deliveries as Edwards AFB crews joined about 9 aircraft in the test. The blast rattled distant towns, with mushroom cloud rising over 37,000 feet and winds carrying debris eastward. No troops participated in this final maneuver.
