We all know what 50s were like; they were probably the worst time of the 20th century where so many undesirable events like nuclear weapon testing, nuclear warfare, followed by myriads of atrocious events took place.
Operation Teapot was one of the events that took place during the 50s in which a series of fourteen nuclear test explosions were conducted at the Nevada Test Site. Below is the four previously unreleased high-definition footage capturing the detonation of some atomic bombs during Operation Teapot in 1955 at the Nevada Test Site.

And countries still want nukes. Why don’t they get it ? You can’t use them as the radiation contaminates the whole atmosphere and makes the entire planet uninhabitable. That mess in Fukishima, Japan is still spewing poison every day and THAT is the most serious threat over everything else.

Everyone is well aware of the consequence of radiation exposure, however making nukes is still the first line of defense according to military science.
