Google Earth Plug-in: Mars Bluff not-so-nuclear crater

Info Map Comments (0) Related Files


The small town of Mars Bluff was the place where in 1958 a B-47 Stratojet accidentally dropped a nuclear bomb - fortunately without the removable core. 7,600 pounds of conventional explosives created a 75 feet wide crater. Some people from the family living in a nearby farm house were injured from the explosion, nobody was killed.

Awkward thing, especially for some Air Force guys...
