The Hunt for the Lost Cold War Nuke at the Bottom of the Pacific Ocean

A Cold War-era nuclear bomb, lost in the depths of the Pacific Ocean for decades, has sparked a renewed search effort by a team of experts. The bomb, believed to be a Mark 15 nuclear weapon, was part of a series of tests conducted by the United States military in the 1950s. During a training exercise in 1950, four Mark 15 bombs were accidentally dropped into the sea off the coast of California. Three of the bombs were recovered, but the fourth remains missing. The search for the lost nuke is being led by a team of scientists and engineers using advanced sonar technology and deep-sea submersibles. The team hopes to locate and safely retrieve the bomb to prevent any potential environmental or security risks.
