[56] [57] In January 2016, North Korea claimed to have successfully tested a hydrogen bomb, [58] although only a magnitude 5.1 seismic event was detected at the time of the test, [59] a similar magnitude to the 2013 test of a 6–9 kt (25–38 TJ) atomic bomb. These seismic recordings cast doubt upon North Korea's claim that a hydrogen bomb was ...
In September 2006, California Senate Bill 1505 required 33% of hydrogen to come from renewable energy sources, [3] [4] and other initiatives followed. [5] As of 2007, 25 stations were in operation. [6] Some of these hydrogen fueling stations completed the terms of their government-funded research demonstration project and were decommissioned. [7]
The United States was the first nation to develop the hydrogen bomb, testing an experimental prototype in 1952 ("Ivy Mike") and a deployable weapon in 1954 ("Castle Bravo"). Throughout the Cold War it continued to modernize and enlarge its nuclear arsenal, but from 1992 on has been involved primarily in a program of stockpile stewardship.
The U.S. Department of Energy said the California Hydrogen Hub will receive an initial $30 million to begin its planning and design phase. The state will eventually receive up to $1.2 billion for ...
That's a lot of cars — 1.78 million new vehicles were sold in California last year. Since hydrogen station growth has stalled and hydrogen prices exploded, fuel cell sales have stalled too. In ...
A corroded bomb believed to be over half a century old washed up on a California beach during a storm and was found on New Year's Eve, Santa Cruz authorities said.
The TX-21 was a scaled-down version of the Runt device (M-17 hydrogen bomb). Smaller in size and weight to the Mk-17, the Mk-21 was considered as a potential missile warhead. Far more powerful than the TX-13, which was a high-yield atomic bomb developed from the Mk-6 bomb, the XW21 was to replace the XW13 in the weapons pod of the B-58 bomber ...
Edward Teller, perhaps the most ardent supporter of the development of the hydrogen bomb, was in Berkeley, California, at the time of the shot. [32] He was able to receive first notice that the test was successful by observing a seismometer, which picked up the shock wave that traveled through the earth from the Pacific Proving Grounds.
