Project Fishbowl and Operation Dominic were a series of high-altitude nuclear tests conducted by the United States during the Cold War era. The tests were carried out in the 1960s as part of the larger Operation Dominic, which was a series of atmospheric nuclear tests conducted by the U.S. to demonstrate nuclear capabilities and gather data for weapons development.

The term "Fishbowl" referred to a subset of high-altitude tests conducted during Operation Dominic, specifically those that aimed to test the survivability of nuclear warheads in space and the effects of nuclear detonations at high altitudes. These tests involved the detonation of nuclear devices at high altitudes, typically above 100,000 feet, to simulate the conditions of a nuclear explosion in space.

The term "Dominic" was the codename used by the U.S. for the overall series of atmospheric nuclear tests conducted during the Operation Dominic program. The name "Dominic" was derived from the Latin word "Dominicus," which means "belonging to the Lord" or "of the Lord." The choice of this codename may have reflected the religious connotations associated with the nuclear tests, as well as the significant role of the U.S. military in carrying out these operations.

In English translation, "Project Fishbowl" and "Operation Dominic" would retain their original names, while the Latin word "Dominicus" would be translated to "belonging to the Lord" or "of the Lord."
