Test Able was above ground; test Baker was a shallow-water burst, and
test Charlie was to be a deep-water burst.  Test Charlie was never 
conducted.  It is interesting to note that they physicists present theorized
that the pressure wave from the deep-water blast would actually create a
large block of ice as one of its effects.
