Among scientific observers at the explosion was Sir William Penney, Britain's Atom chief. With him were 23 other British and Canadian scientists

The fire ball lasted less than five seconds. The flash appeared brighter than the sun in Las Vegas, 75 miles away from the test area, but was not seen in Los Angeles; 250 miles away.

The test was the highest ever made. The weapon, whoer exis tence was disclosed by the Detence Department at the end of last month is said to be cap- able of destroying an entire formation of aircraft.

A special high altitude plante released it today.

The British and Canadian scientists watching were the first foreign observers at a Nevada test.
