    Description "The first British Hydrogen bomb is dropped near Christmas Island"
    Date

    15 May 1957

    This is a common error based on 1957 disinformation. The May tests of Operation Grapple were not at Christmas (Kiritimati) but at Malden Island. They included 2 H-bomb prototypes which failed to function as intended, and 1 beefed-up N-bomb which was publicly sold as H-bomb.
    The photo is of the first successful British H-bomb test (Grapple X) which took place over Kiritimati on November 8, 1957. See en:Operation Grapple. Dysmorodrepanis 00:00, 26 March 2008 (UTC)
