The nuclear plane crash is a punchy news item, but I question whether it belongs in a concise and scholarly general history article. It might be more comfortably moved to an article on plane crashes or nuclear accidents. That it happened in Kentucky is not terribly relevant. Sbalfour (talk) 19:24, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I would suggest article Nuclear and radiation accidents and incidents subsection 1950's. Sbalfour (talk) 19:46, 1 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
