Orange Herald (small) warhead prepared for test at the Christmas Island Grapple series on 31 May 1957. Yield was 720 kT. The spherical implosion device is seen in this photograph housed in the centre section of a Blue Danube carcass with the nose, tail and panelling removed. The 32-lens implosion system can be clearly seen. The firing unit adapted from Blue Danube can be see at the top left attached to the tubular bulkhead, and with 64 cables radiating from it. Each of the 32 firing cables was duplicated.

• Photograph was originally Crown Copyright. This picture had to be taken before the device was detonated in the Christmas Island tests of Spring 1957. Therefore the photograph is now after 50 years out of copyright, and in the public domain. No question of Fair Use applies.
