Guess the Secret Nuclear Code!

Sunday, November 6th, 2005

According to a site called the “Center for Defense Information,” during the Cold War, the secret code that would have been used to launch nuclear missiles at Russia was:

00000000

*cough*

Well.

Apparently, the Strategic Air Command “remained far less concerned about unauthorized launches than about the potential of these safeguards to interfere with the implementation of wartime launch orders.” So they made sure that all the missiles used an easy to remember code.

That’s a little scary.

But still! A fun shower head. I want one….
