Declassified US Nuclear Test Film #62

0800062 – Starfish Prime Test Interim Report by Commander JTF-8; Fishbowl Auroral Sequences – Silent; Dominic on Fishbowl Phenomenon -Silent; Fishbowl XR Summary – Silent – 1962 – 1:01:25 – Black&White and Color – Four Films on One Video Starfish Prime Test Interim Report by Commander JTF-8 – 7:45 – Sound – STARFISH PRIME, was one of the high-altitude nuclear tests in the Operation Fishbowl series conducted in the Pacific Proving Ground in 1962. It was launched in the Johnston Island area to an altitude of about 400 kilometers by a Thor rocket and had a yield of 1.4 megatons. The test evaluated the capabilities of an antiballistic missile to operate in a nuclear environment and the vulnerability of a US reentry vehicle to survive a nearby nuclear blast. It also provided information on the ability of a US radar system to detect and track reentry vehicles. Another goal was to discern the effects of a high-altitude blast on command and control systems, which were shown to be vulnerable in earlier high-altitude tests. The final goal was to obtain information on the feasibility of testing in outer space. Fishbowl Auroral Sequences – 7:50 – Color – Silent – BLUEGILL and STARFISH were high-altitude nuclear tests, part of Operation Fishbowl, conducted in the Johnston Island area of the Pacific Proving Ground in 1962. These tests produced auroral effects, a special feature of explosions where the extreme brightness of the fireball is visible at great distances. Within a second or

    And we thought communists were the threat.

    Starfish. Prime. The fucking nuke is called “Starfish Prime.”
    The entire team must have been doing large amounts of acid when they dreamed up this nuke test.

    Looks like a Nebula.

    DO NOT TRY THIS AT HOME!

  7. Deelightfulmush says:

    @TeunisD Wrong, destruction done right is a lot easier then construction.

    @Longhornzrock96 Well at least they were trustowrthy enough to know to never use them in anger. Give them some credit for that.

  9. ddc0d3r says:

    This was in the early 1960s. Just imagine what was done in addition to this, and what is still being done, that they will never declassify.

    1 hours?? O.o

  11. Longhornzrock96 says:

    Shit like this is why i could never trust our government.

    @guadagnolo Yes, the explosion of a 25-megaton neutron bomb will slowly kill the Aliens under destruction of the circuits of the UFO by an EMP.

    I got it! Lets blow up the atmosphere!
    - yes sir, sounds like a great idea sir.

    Lord help us all..

    @VikingNightmare Gosh, I could swear that cloud over there looks just like a whale. And that one there like a rabbit. It’s the human mind at work.

  15. MrJimbob91389 says:

    ha ha ha, they named it “StarFish”, that is too funny.

    @thekkl In a democracy Governments represent people. The people representing people often turn out to be greedy with vested interests. Anyone in the 21st century who honestly believes that they live in a democracy needs to open their eyes. They live in a Corporatocracy which gives people the belief that the system is for the benefit of the people, when in reality it is for the benefit of a handful of selfish people who are interested only in acquiring more of what they really yearn for.

    I dunno about UFOs or stuff, but from 21:14 till 21:18 you can see a skull emerging and then disappearing in the middle of the circle, and from 21:09 till 21:11 and 21:13 it kinda looks like a burnt face and then it morphs in a skull, is this just me or others also see it, i am not saying anything just that it is freaky…

    @lee8264 i make a pause- play between 21m20s and 21m35s and the last light going fast is simply an UFO ” Like the other…” , you CAN exactly see the UFO if you pause at the good moment , i know its little bit psycho to do this things but the results is one proof That this technologie is between hands of some fcking people of our planet….or not, and govrnmt keep this secret since 50 years so for me a French guy it makes me sad for all the earth to be intellectually slave of This kind of think

  25. lee8264 says:

    @motieny These tests were conducted mainly to measure the of E.M.Ps created from detonation.It was conducted by the D.O.E.The test results detected three different kinds of E.M.Ps E1,E2, E3.Each one has different effect ranging from gamma radiation burst to mass coronal ejection and electromagnetic burst.They conducted 36 tests under the code name operation dominic.This was just one of many operations carried out by the United States.Over 1000 at the Neveda proving grounds alone.This is Area 51.

    I guess I’m gonna have to take my truck out there this winter or spring. It’s about time to knock the rust off of it.

    i got a question how do shocks work

  31. Torqu3d says:

    Went through 15 video trying to find one without stupied music! Thanks you sir.

  32. dotbadburn says:

    @proaudiohd yea big foot
    

  33. proaudiohd says:

    damn.. is there a tougher sport on shocks than trophy truck racing?

  34. sands302 says:

    If those shocks had anymore Rebound on them they would unload super fast after a full compression and the truck would crash and burn..

  35. connorwhitted says:

    @slappomatt on trails that rough and at that speed i think thats about the best your gonna get

  36. xXG00fyG00berXx says:

    @slappomatt oh! wow awesome!! ive never thought of that! you should totally go tell the crew whats wrong with their shocks because obviously there doing it wrong they need those tires to stay on the ground!!!

  37. slappomatt says:

    Baaaaabbbsss…. so professional!!!

  38. massiverick789 says:

    @slappomatt
    i think he knows what hes doing.. hes a professional ever heard of them

  39. massiverick789 says:

    @slappomatt
    i think he knows what hes doing…. hes a professional ever heard of them

  40. slappomatt says:

    looks to me like rebound is too slow. The tires don’t spend much time actually on the ground. when you are going that fast over terrain like that you need to be able to control the thing. Tires in the air have no control. They also don’t get the power down very well.
