(Original Caption) Nevada: Underground Blast. This odd stool shaped cloud was produced by what Navy observers believe was the first underground A Bomb explosion to ever take place. The test was witnessed by a group of high ranking army officers headed by Gen. J. Lawton Collins, Chief of Staff. This shot was made from Mount Charlestown approximately 40 miles from Yucca Flats where the blast went of.
