I THOUGHT YOU ONLY POSTED THINGS ABOUT MATH

that is what your name has to do with, right?

Clearly you know that nukes don't explode in impact.

Thread should read " once plutonium fell from the sky "

clearly you didn't read the article... the bombs were armed and only one failsafe did not fail. hence "almost"

as a result of this incident, our arsenal was upgraded to replace the iffy circuitry.

hey, if you read about this in the thread from last year, you would see that the one trigger that wasn't activated was the one from the pilot in the cockpit, therefore making it impossible to arm the bomb after the plane broke up.

HERE LET ME REQUOTE IT FOR YOU

Quote :

"The parachute-retarded weapon came closest to firing; the official reports claim that three of four arming steps were completed. Since the aircraft commander had not thrown the arming switch in the B-52 cockpit, and since that switch was not activated accidentally when the aircraft broke up, it was impossible for the weapon(s) to fire, regardless of how uncomfortably close they came to doing so. This was a very dangerous incident and I suspect that steps were taken afterwards to prevent any repetition of it. I do not now know of any other weapon accident that came this close to a full-scale nuclear detonation (which is not to say that any such incident did not occur later)."

NC didn't almost get nuked.

i can't wait until next years thread about this subject.

came close, but it was still impossible for that bomb to have detonated. BECAUSE IT WASNT ARMED BEFORE THE PLANE WENT POOF BE GONE.

6/14/2014 5:35:38 PM

did you read any of the stuff that was declassified/published this week? it was clearly NOT impossible.

you are clearly trolling at this point.

I don't know the source of this quote, but it surely implies that detonation was a real possibility...

So if the crash or something during the event would have accidentally triggered the switch or caused a malfunction to trigger the switch... could been boom.
