1959 Secret California Nuclear Accident



NOTE: How many of us have even heard of this one?

Simi Valley California, about 45 minutes from Los Angeles by car, was the site of the worst nuclear disaster in U.S. history in 1959, and the amounts of radiation leaked to the environment and atomosphere were more than 240 times that of the accident at 3-Mile Island.

Odds are you never heard of it.

The information only started coming out 20 years later and only because of an accidental discovery.

And you think the government can't keep secrets
