What’s New

  • Added Rascal weapons page.

    Added Bullpup weapons page.

    Added Talos weapons page.

  • Added B57 weapons page (without essay or captions).

  • Change of strategy. Instead of waiting until a weapons page is complete before I post it, I’m going to try posting weapons pages when they are all done except for the essays and the image captions. I’ve been working on this more or less full time since the beginning of the year and I’m still not quite halfway through the weapons. My thinking is I can give the viewer all of the photographs and links to learn more soon, and then circle around and add the essays and captions throughout the rest of the first half of the year.

  • Added the Mark 53/B53 weapons page.

  • Added Mark 43 weapons page.

  • Added Mark 41 weapons page.

  • Added the weapons page on the Mark 39 bomb.

  • Added Photos page (and main menu item) to share all of the photographs on a single page.

    Added the Smyth Report to the Further Reading section of the Fat Man page which I had somehow not listed before–a surprising oversight.

  • Added Support page, with menu in header.

    (Temporarily) removed FAQ page from menu in header until I can add finished content.

  • Added page “10 Best Non-Fiction Books On Nuclear Weapons” available via the Resources Menu.

    Moved link for “Where to See Nuclear Weapons” from body text to title text “Nuclear Tourism” available via Resources page.

    Added link to NukeMaps on the Resources page.
