596, originally named by the US intelligence agencies Chic-1,〔''Communist China's Weapons Program for Strategic Attack'', NIE 13-8-71 (Top Secret, declassified June 2004), Central Intelligence Agency, Washington D.C., 1971.〕 is the codename of the People's Republic of China's first nuclear weapons test, detonated on October 16, 1964, at the Lop Nur test site. It was a uranium-235 implosion fission device and had a yield of 22 kilotons. With the test, China became the fifth nuclear power. In response, the Taiwanese leadership, including President Chiang Kai-shek, called for a military response against Chinese nuclear facilities and the formation of an Asian anti-communist defense organisation. Project 596 was named after the month of June 1959 in which it was initiated, immediately after Nikita Khrushchev decided to stop helping the Chinese with their nuclear program on 20 June 1959.〔http://www.physicstoday.org/vol-61/iss-9/47_1.pdf〕 ==Specifics== * Time: 07:00 GMT 16 October 1964 * Location: Lop Nur Test Ground, , about 70 km northwest of Lop Nor dry lake〔 * Test Height and Type: Tower, 102 meters * Yield: 22 kilotons 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「596 (nuclear test)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
