How Did the #CIA Lose a #Nuclear Device?
The device, a #SNAP19C portable generator containing #plutonium isotopes including #Pu239 was left behind in October 1965 when a sudden blizzard forced climbers to retreat from Camp Four, just below the summit, it disappeared on one of world’s highest mountains in a hush-hush mission the #US still won’t talk about. The device remains buried somewhere in the glaciers that feed tributaries of the #GangesRiver.

The Ganges River is drying at an unprecedented rate, new study finds
The Ganges River is in crisis. This lifeline for around 600 million people in India and neighboring countries is experiencing its worst drying period in 1,300 years. Using a combination of historical data, paleoclimate records and hydrological models, researchers from IIT Gandhinagar and the University of Arizona discovered that human activity is the main cause. They also found that the current drying is more severe than any recorded drought in the river's history.
