What is the first day of summer in Texas when the direct rays of the sun are at the?

The first day of summer in the northern hemisphere is the day when the sun appears

farthest north among the stars, at the point known as the "Summer solstice", usually

on June 21 or 22. At that time, the sun is seen directly overhead from some point on

the Tropic of Cancer ... the parallel of 23.5 degrees north latitude.

It's never possible for the sun to be seen directly overhead anywhere in Texas. The

southernmost point in Texas, near Brownsville, is about 170 miles north of the Tropic

of Cancer.

How does nuclear energy explode?

A nuclear explosion requires two things. First, it requires a critical mass, and second, it requires that the critical mass hold together long enough into the chain reaction that it truly explodes and does not simply come apart.

The critical mass comes because certain isotopes spontaneously undergo fission, and, when doing so, produce enough neutrons to cause multiple other atoms to undergo fission also. If there is enough such material in a small enough volume, a chain reaction is produced that consumes most or all of the atoms present. The only natural element to do this is uranium-235.

A problem with this is that when the chain reaction starts, there is enough heat to cause the mass to fly apart, destroying the critical mass and ending the reaction. So, building a nuclear bomb requires addressing this problem. It is not an easy problem to overcome, and it probably cannot happen accidentally at all. There has been at least one attempt at building a nuclear bomb that probably failed because of this problem.
