Nuclear Explosions on DVD
16 spectacular airdrop nuclear bursts that were
detonated near Christmas Island in the Pacific Ocean.
Operation Dominic Fireballs, Pacific Testing 1962, Christmas Island Area
- 1962 - 43 minutes - Color (Silent) (Long distance aerial views only)
Sixteen of the Operation Dominic spectacular airdrop nuclear bursts that
were detonated near Christmas Island in the Pacific Ocean are shown in
this video. These weapons-related devices were dropped from B-52s
staged out of Hawaii from April 27 to July 11, 1962. After the Soviet
Union resumed atmospheric testing in violation of a treaty with the United
States, President Kennedy authorized the U.S. to resume atmospheric testing
on March 2, 1962.
The video, comprised of small rolls of film that had never been released,
shows the fireballs of 16 nuclear devices being fired off the southern
end of Christmas Island, which had been used earlier by the British for
nuclear testing. The United States was striving to increase the yield-to-weight
ratio of weapons so they could be delivered by existing aircraft.
The tests shown from the 1962 Operation Dominic were as follows:
AZTEC, April 27, 410 kilotons (kt)
QUESTA, May 4, 670 kt
YUKON, May 8, 100 kt

your payment. At that point, eBay will allow you to combine all
your purchases into a single payment and will automatically charge
you the shipping charges as stated above. If you do not follow this
procedure, you will be making multiple payments, paying shipping
multiple times and get your order sent in multiple packages.
