A four-megaton nuclear bomb was one switch away from exploding over the US in 1961, a newly declassified US document confirms.

Two bombs were on board a B-52 plane that went into an uncontrolled spin over North Carolina - both bombs fell and one began the detonation process...

Thought some of you guys might be interested.

Give Hank's canon is 1962 and he had to have been working for the CIA for a few years to construct the Black Bird, if not Cerebro, this makes me wonder if he knew about these near misses.

Either way, freaky shit.

For a bonus, cross-reference that to radnet precipitation data from right after Fukushima Daiichi got screwed over. :)
