Details

Castle Bravo was the code name given to the first U.S. test of a dry fuel thermonuclear hydrogen bomb device, detonated on March 1, 1954, at Bikini Atoll, Marshall Islands, by the United States, as the first test of Operation Castle. Fallout from the detonation intended to be a secret test poisoned the islanders who inhabited the test site, as well as the crew of Daigo Fukury Maru, a Japanese fishing boat, and created international concern about atmospheric thermonuclear testing. The bomb used lithium deuteride fuel for the fusion stage, unlike the cryogenic liquid deuterium tritium used as fuel for the fusion stage of the U.S. experimental Ivy Mike device, which, being the size of a small office building, was an impractical weapon for use in war. The bomb tested at Castle Bravo was the first practical deliverable fusion bomb in the U.S. arsenal.
