The Baker event was the fifth-ever nuclear bomb, detonated 90 feet (27 m) underwater on 25 July 1946. Over 90 ships were arranged around the explosion to test its effects.

Ah the 1950's when Valium was at it's peak sales, a large screen TV was a whopping 12". Housewives all over the country could cook with the greatest of ease and men could buy the latest and greatest in automobile technology: the AIR CONDITIONER! While Dad would talk about the blight of communism. Sit back and be indoctrinated!
