  1. “A mouse never entrusts his life to only one hole”*…

    … Well, our earth is riddled with them. And as our old friend Randall Munroe at xkcd reminds us, some of them are very deep…

    Holes

    As we spelunk, we might recall that it was on this date in 1962 that the U.S. military detonated Little Feller I, a tactical nuclear weapon at the Nevada Test Site as part of Operation Sunbeam. It was the last near-ground atmospheric nuclear detonation conducted by the United States. The high-altitude Fishbowl tests concluded in November of1962 with a detonation at around 69,000 feet altitude. Thereafter, in accordance with the 1963 Partial Test Ban Treaty, tests were conducted underground… more holes.

    The goal was to see if this "plasma shield" could:

    Blind Soviet Radar: Making it impossible for them to track incoming missiles.

    Fry Enemy Electronics: The radiation belt could potentially "cook" the guidance systems of incoming Soviet warheads.

    The project was so secret that the public didn't find out about it until the New York Times broke the story a year later in 1959.

    The experiment was based on a theory by a Greek physicist named Nicholas Christofilos. He predicted that a nuclear explosion in space would create an artificial Van Allen radiation belt.

    He was right. The explosions created a shell of high-energy electrons that wrapped around the entire planet for several weeks.

    The Actual Stats:

    The Weapons: They launched three modified X-17A missiles, each carrying a 1.7-kiloton W-25 nuclear warhead.

    The Altitudes: These weren't just "high altitude" shots; they were true space shots. The detonations occurred at:

    Argus I: 100 miles (approx. 161 km)

    Argus II: 182 miles (approx. 293 km)

    Argus III: 466 miles (approx. 750 km)—deep into the exosphere.

  33. グローバル被爆者:核時代の隠された物語 [日本語吹替版]

    この短編動画では、拡大し続ける核時代の歴史、そして日本での出来事を超え、世界中の何百万もの人々に影響を与えた「隠された物語」を探ります。核実験、核兵器製造、そして事故の時代がいかにして広大なネットワーク、すなわち放射性降下物によって人生を永遠に変えられた人々——「グローバル・ヒバクシャ」——を生み出したのかを検証します。

  38. Using the tragic 1954 Castle Bravo test as a turning point, we analyze how radioactive fallout was tracked in secret while the victims were told the 'snow' falling on them was harmless. It is time to move past the cinematic myths of the mushroom cloud and confront the 'nuclear mundane': the quiet, ongoing reality of a world where the isotopes of the Cold War are still part of our environment and our biology.
