A covert release of Bacillus subtilis var. niger into the New York City subway in June 1966 sent bacterial simulant into air currents used by millions - and internal documents later called the result capable of producing a "city-level epidemic." Who decided to run biological field trials beneath one of the world’s busiest transit systems, and why was no one in the city told?
In this episode, we present the documented record of Project 112 and the specific subway trial it ran in New York City, laying out where the program began, how it operated across countries, and what the internal conclusions were; what does the phrase "city-level epidemic" reveal about the program’s intent?
Project: Project 112
Date: June 1966
Location: New York City subway
Agent: Bacillus subtilis var. niger (simulant)
Scope: more than 50 documented trials
- On June 7, 1966 a technician dropped glass light bulbs filled with Bacillus subtilis var. niger onto subway tracks in New York City.
- The light bulbs shattered and dispersal occurred through train-induced air movement over three days with millions of riders exposed.
- Project 112 ran for over a decade and encompassed more than 50 documented trials across five countries.
- More than 18 documented trials used biological simulants and more than 14 used chemical agents including sarin, VX, and mustard gas.
- Internal documents concluded the subway release “would have produced a city-level epidemic” had a genuine pathogen been used.
