US Nuke Still Missing After 50 Years

A US nuke that had to be ditched off the US coast 50 years ago following a mid-air collision has still not been found. The BBC reports on how the pilot was able to safely land his B-47 bomber following the collision during a training flight on 5 February 1958. The bomb was not fitted with a detonator so the chance of an explosion were remote. There are concerns about what a rusting bit of radioactive cold-war hardware could do to the environment and even if terrorists may already have found it.
