Survival Town atomic test shows survivors in rubble and debris
Survival Town in Nevada shows high damage to homes and fixtures but no injuries among 2,000 observers despite near ground zero. Harold Goodwin of the Federal Civil Defense Administration says debris and radiation would have killed all residents within a mile. Concrete and reinforced houses fared better, while frame structures collapsed. The blast, more powerful than Hiroshima, vaporized the tower and produced an harmless cloud drifting north. Officials plan to publish defense recommendations months later as the 1955 test series concludes with a final detonation near Survival Town.
