Photo from the Security Pacific National Bank Photo Collection at the Los Angeles Public Library.

March 1, 1955, 5:27 a.m. An early morning atomic bomb test at the Nevada Test Site, about 300 miles away, lights up the sky above Los Angeles County. During the 1950s, 120 Nevada atomic bomb tests were conducted, about half of them in the dark early morning hours, giving Los Angeles County, even hundreds of miles away, more than 50 early morning "atomic sunrises."
