Operation Crossroads BAKER, 1946

Colorized image of BAKER nuclear test at Bikini Atoll. The nuclear bomb was detonated at 90 feet underwater on July 25th, 1946 as part of Operation Crossroads. The purpose of Operation Crossroads nuclear weapon tests was to investigate the effect of nuclear weapons on naval ships. Gases formed a bubble which rose above the surface. Water filling the cavity formed by the bubble caused a hollow column of water, called the chimney or plume, to rise 6,000 ft (1,800 m) in the air and break through the top of the cloud.
