Broken Arrow: Bomber 075 & the Lost Nuke (BC)

Published: Oct. 21, 2019, 7 a.m.

b"Episode 096 - Just before midnight of Valentine's Day 1950, a Convair B36 bomber on maneuvers was lost somewhere over British Columbia. Twelve of the 17 crew survived. Also aboard was a Mark IV nuclear weapon, aka a Fat Man, just like the one dropped on Nagasaki Japan. Although, the bomb itself was jettisoned, it is unclear what became of the lead box containing the plutonium core to make the weapon active. This core, which would still be deadly today, may still lay on the bottom of the Pacific Ocean or in the wilds of BC, near where the plane was eventually found, if it exists at all.\\n\\nDark Poutine Live ShowNovember 9, 2019 at 10:00pm in Vancouver at the Rio Theatre: tickets hereShout to to Jess Huey PotterySources:\\n\\n\\nhttps://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-37875697\\n\\nhttps://www.timescolonist.com/entertainment/books/the-lost-nuke-of-bomber-075-1.20252067\\n\\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1950_British_Columbia_B-36_crash\\n\\nhttp://www.air-and-space.com/b-36%20wrecks.htm#44-92075\\n\\nhttps://web.archive.org/web/20150702114743/http://www.cowtown.net/proweb/brokenarrow3.htm\\n\\nhttps://www.amazon.ca/Command-Control-Damascus-Accident-Illusion-ebook/dp/B00C5R7F8G/ref=tmm_kin_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=\\n\\nhttps://www.amazon.ca/Lost-Nuke-Last-Flight-Bomber-ebook/dp/B00HUCQA50/ref=sr_1_1?keywords=lost+nuke&qid=1571183030&s=digital-text&sr=1-1\\n\\nhttps://www.washingtonpost.com/news/checkpoint/wp/2016/11/08/a-diver-was-looking-for-sea-cucumbers-he-may-have-found-a-long-lost-nuclear-bomb-instead/\\n\\nhttps://aviation-safety.net/wikibase/72552\\n\\nhttps://www.introtoglobalstudies.com/2012/10/broken-arrow-lost-nuclear-weapons-in-canada/\\n\\nhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=piDEE80nfgo\\n\\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Convair_B-36_Peacemaker\\n\\nhttps://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/Broken_Arrow\\n\\nhttps://www.theguardian.com/world/2018/jul/16/nuclear-war-north-korea-russia-what-will-happen-how-likely-explained\\n\\nhttps://www.vox.com/future-perfect/2018/10/19/17873822/nuclear-war-weapons-bombs-how-kill\\n\\nhttps://www.wikihow.com/Deal-with-a-Fear-of-Nuclear-War\\n\\nhttps://www.google.com/search?client=firefox-b-d&q=Nuclear+Apocalypse+movies\\n\\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canada_and_weapons_of_mass_destruction\\n\\nhttps://www.scribd.com/book/230087857/Canadian-Nuclear-Weapons-The-Untold-Story-of-Canada-s-Cold-War-Arsenal\\n\\nhttps://www.scribd.com/book/230093903/U-S-Nuclear-Weapons-in-Canada\\n\\nhttp://mentalfloss.com/article/17483/8-nuclear-weapons-us-has-lost\\n\\nhttps://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/\\n\\nhttps://interestingengineering.com/broken-arrows-the-worlds-lost-nuclear-weapons\\n\\nhttps://www.spiegel.de/international/world/a-nuclear-needle-in-a-haystack-the-cold-war-s-missing-atom-bombs-a-590513.html\\n\\nhttps://archive.org/details/DuckandC1951\\n\\nhttps://archive.org/details/0771_Duck_and_Cover_12_33_20_12\\n\\nhttps://www.atomicheritage.org/history/soviet-atomic-program-1946\\n\\nhttps://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear_arms_race\\n\\nhttps://www.atomicheritage.org/history/tsar-bomba\\n\\nhttp://www.user.dccnet.com/welcomewoods/Nuclear_Free_Georgia_Strait/b_arrow1.html\\n\\nhttps://www.bcmag.ca/bomb-on-board-a-nuclear-weapon-goes-missing-over-british-columbia/\\n\\nhttp://www.ccnr.org/opinion_ge.html\\n\\nhttps://thebulletin.org/doomsday-clock/\\n\\nSupport the show: https://www.patreon.com/darkpoutine\\nLearn more about your ad choices.
