Description: An eleven-megaton hyrdrogen bomb is detonated over Bikini Atoll in March 1954. One megaton had the explosive power of 1 million tons of TNT. (The bomb that had destroyed Hiroshima had the equivalent of 12,500 tons of TNT.) An earlier bomb test at Bikini Island prompted a French fashion designer to name his explosively provocative bathing suit the “bikini.”
