nov 1, 1952 - Hydrogen Bomb - Maggie

Description:

The United States tested the first hydrogen bomb on this day. A hydrogen bomb is similar to the atomic bomb but it is believed to be 1,000 times more volatile and destructive. This is significant to the Cold War because it caused the Arms Race to pick up in intensity.
