Radiation Exposure Potential:
A slight potential existed for all air-
crews and for the personnel decontaminating aircraft after flights. The
exposures accrued by the RB-36 crew, however, while acting as photo
aircraft for this project for 10 minutes after burst, were far outweighed by those accrued over the next several hours while acting as
the sampler controller aircraft.
was about 40,000 feet (12.19 km).
Burst-time altitude for the RB-36
The three C-54 aircraft were used
by the Documentary Photography element after H+l.
They were at 10,000
to 14,000 feet (3.05 to 4.27 km) altitude and 40 to 60 nmi (74 to 111
km)
from ground zero, except on YANKEE when they were 90 to 100 nmi
(167 to 185 km) distant.

One person (military) was definitely associated with this
Project, receiving 0.250 R.
