Today in 1958, a B-47 on ground alert at Chennault Air Force Base, Louisiana, carrying a sealed-pit hydrogen bomb containing no plutonium, caught fire when the Jet-Assisted Take-Off (JATO) bottles accidentally discharged during the pilot’s acceptance check, pushing the plane into a towing vehicle.

Today in 1952—November 16, local time—the United States conducted the Ivy KING nuclear test at Enewetak Atoll in the Northern Pacific Ocean. A B-36H bomber flying from Kwajalein Atoll dropped an 8,600-pound device, which exploded 1,480 feet above Runit Island with a yield of 500 kilotons.
