Historic nuclear test sites

Last updated

These pages pin the globe on a historic test ground and load a named yield. They are reconstructions for scale, not operational recreations.

Educational estimate only. Blast and heat rings use simplified yield scaling. They ignore terrain, weather, shielding, and weapon design. Casualty counts use WorldPop 2020 residents on an approximately 1 km grid and ignore time of day, commuting, shelter, and evacuation. This is not a targeting or civil-defense tool. About the model.
