{"product_id":"americas-atomic-bomb-tests-2-operation-hardtack","title":"America's Atomic Bomb Tests #2: Operation Hardtack","description":"Amazon.com\n\nVolume 2 of the America's Atomic Bomb Test series covers Operation Hardtack, in which bombs were detonated below ground, underwater, and in the atmosphere to study their effects. Airborne planes were flown near the explosion to gauge how they handled the shock wave, and destroyers and barges were loaded with instruments and used as target ships in the underwater tests. This DVD deals mainly with methodology and scientific results and uses crude animation to illustrate much of the information. Of the three DVDs in the series, Volume 2 is the dullest. Its narration is bone-dry and couched in technical language best appreciated (or even understood) by scientists and engineers. --Jerry Renshaw\n\nProduct Description\n\nA priceless history of some of the most unusual nuclear weapons tests ever. Sixty two nuclear bombs were detonated as part of the Operation Hardtack series of nuclear tests. One of the few operations ever to be conducted at both the Pacific Proving Grounds and the Nevada Test Site, Hardtack combined balloon shots, surface shots, barge shots, underwater shots, underground shots, tower shots and missile shots.\u003cbr\u003eASIN: B00000JMOR\u003cbr\u003eVSKU: DBV.B00000JMOR.G\u003cbr\u003eCondition: Good\u003cbr\u003eAuthor\/Artist:America's Atomic Bomb Tests\u003cbr\u003eBinding: Dvd\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eNote:\u003c\/b\u003e Any images shown are stock photographs and product may differ from what is shown.  \u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eCondition Notes\u003c\/b\u003e: Individually inspected: Guaranteed to play perfectly or your money back.
