Nevada neither participated in the creation nor production of the atomic bomb. However both atomic bombs and reduced yield hydrogen bombs were tested at the Nevada Test Site north of Las Vegas from 1951 to 1992 (above ground atmospheric tests ended in 1962). The test results were used by the design labs (Los Alamos and Lawrence Livermore) to optimize the bombs and design variants of existing bombs. The Nevada Test Site does continue to be used for underground subcritical atomic device testing to get data for optimization of computer models used for atomic bomb design.
