Dive Detectives
Lost A-Bombs
S1 E5:
It was called Project Alberta, a top-secret World War II mission that converted the South Pacific island of Tinian into an A-bomb factory. It was the launch point for the planes that dropped “Fat Man” and “Little Boy” on Japan, but few know that there were many more atomic bombs assembled on this island. When peace arrived, those bombs, and their myriad components vanished, allegedly dumped into the surrounding ocean. The Dive Detectives embark on a land and sea mission, braving excessive heat, deep waters, even live bombs, to put the pieces together.
