Atomic test "Priscilla" detonated at the Nevada Test Site in southern Nye County June 24, 1957. Priscilla was one of nearly one hundred atmospheric nuclear tests conducted at the site during the 1950s. Atmospheric testing was banned by treaty between the United States and the Soviet Union in 1963, although it had been moved underground in Nevada in 1959. Since 1951, more than 600 nuclear devices have been detonated at the Nevada Test Site.
