Never fired in war, only in test! The first artillery test was on May 25, 1953 at the Nevada Test Site. Fired as part of Operation Upshot-Knothole and codenamed Shot GRABLE, a 280 mm (11 inch) shell with a gun-type fission warhead was fired 10,000 m (6.2 miles) and detonated 160 m (525 ft) above the ground with an estimated yield of 15 kilotons. This was the only nuclear artillery shell ever actually fired in the US test program. The shell was 1384 mm (4.5 ft) long and weighed 365 kg (805 lb); it was fired from a special artillery piece, nicknamed "Atomic Annie", built by the Artillery Test Unit of Fort Sill, Oklahoma. Around 3,200 personnel were present. The warhead was designated the W9 and 80 were produced from 1952-53 for the T-124 shell. It was retired in 1957.
Located next to I-70 at Exit 301, just outside Fort Riley, KS. It's a steep walk up a hiil to reach the cannon.

As I took this picture, a homeless guy walked up and urged me to open it. "I'll work for ya," he said. "I'll work all day, I miss the place."
In 2009 it appeared in The Hangover, but has been closed for a number of years before that.
I met the owner, Joe Sobchik in late 2005, but the internet is strangely quiet on where he is now or what happened to this Las Vegas institution.

(2019) Atomic Blast
This is a tribute art of Godzilla: King of Monsters (2019), created while binge watching HBO's Chernobyl (2019).
The blue atomic blast shooting toward the sky from the official movie poster of the new Godzilla movie, reminded me of the blue beam emitted from the explosion of Chernobyl disaster.
Indeed the terror of radiation and misinformation are much much worse than any disaster, simply because those can be invisible yet lethal, quiet but deadly .

I replaced my old analog clock with this Atomic clock. Its a Marathon which is a good make and it was made in Canada, like me :) It has a soft orange light behind it when the room is dim, so you can read it even in a dark room.
