The Buster-Jangle Sugar shot was conducted on November 19, 1951, at the Nevada Test Site.
It was a surface burst nuclear test with a yield of 1.2 kilotons of TNT.
The test aimed to study the effects of a surface-level nuclear detonation, including crater formation and radioactive fallout.
It resulted in a crater measuring 21 feet deep and 90 feet wide.
The explosion produced intense local fallout, with radiation levels reaching 5,000 R/hr at ground zero.
An estimated 170 kCi of radioactive iodine-131 was released during the test.
This was the only true surface nuclear test ever conducted on the U.S. mainland.
The test was part of the "Desert Rock II" military exercise, providing troops with nuclear combat training.
Its findings underscored the severe radiological hazards of surface bursts.
The data collected influenced future weapons design and improved safety protocols for nuclear operations.
