Nuclear tests always buried deep into the ground I think, remotely detonated. Could be wrong though, never witnessed any.

Yeah, I can see it. It's probably the rocket sled. A HQ clip will verify/deny that, but for now, I'm with ya.effin said:same sunset vibe, the terrain is desert, smoke trail behind the fire, fast straight line, I'm about 90% sure.

This sets the hyper-intense urgent/panick-striken 'red'-fearing tone of the whole movie therafter. This was the essential atmosphere of the fifties, and of this film, which is akin to all previous IJ-films, 'a period film'.
