Way back in 1958, we were in the midst of a Cold War. It was during this time that we "lost" a hydrogen bomb.
The hydrogen bomb was lost in the Atlantic Ocean in 1958 following a collision of a B-47 bomber and an F-86 fighter.Well, the bomb has apparently been found. Off the coast of Georgia.
A group led by retired Air Force Lt. Col. Derek Duke of Statesboro, Georgia, said in July that it had found a large object underwater near Savannah that was emitting high levels of radioactivity, according to an Associated Press report.They're trying to decide now whether to leave it there, or try to recover it. There's concern that it may explode during the recovery process. That would be bad.
