More likely that Australia was testing a bomb.
And that isn’t all that likely.
Must have been a neutron bomb with no detectable radiation.
Doesn’t every cult have one?
I’m going to tell you something weird:
Though it was a cult originating in Japan, Aum in fact had MUCH more believer recruiting success in RUSSIA than it ever did in Japan (though it was pretty successful there, too).
And Aum did pick up one or two believers in a very secretive Russian weapons lab.
Their growth came at a point when in the former Soviet Union it sometimes appeared that ANYTHING was for sale.
At a compound in Yamagata Prefecture they were manufacturing AK’s, training in small unit tactics like crazy with airsoft, they had a huge Mi-26 Soviet transport:

You won’t believe this but they even had berthed up somewhere an Oscar-class NUCLEAR SUB they had somehow bought.
They had other stuff, too.
Their plan was to help usher in Armegeddon by spraying all of Tokyo with NERVE GAS.
The total plan isn’t very well known but there were even CRAZIER parts to it.
This is 100% pure, unadulterated bullshit.
Certain.
Sorry, hate to be a wet blanked, but this story does not fly.
Uranium is one thing, and it requires extensive purification to be anywhere near weapons grade. That takes huge plants.
For example, the one Hiroshima bomb consumed all the U235 Oak Ridge produced throughout WWII.
Pu is another matter. Not obtainable.
As far as residual radiation, there would be extensive contamination in the aftermath of any type of fission explosion.
Finally, fission explosions do not have a bright flash. They have a very bright DOUBLE flash unique to atomic explosions.
Agree totally. See #6
Please tell us more. This is insane!
As far as I know, only PU can make a bomb of 2kt.
And that must be purified from spent reactor fuel.
A U235 bomb would have scattered radioactive contamination for hundreds of miles, at least and would be detectable to point of origin from the air...from at least 100 miles.
Meteor blast in the atmosphere also plausible. But, you see, Trump mentioned Russia!
Please tell us more. This is insane!
Ah... listen to the soundtrack of ‘Grease’ ??
Exactamundo!
Exactly.
Sniffer modified C135 would have evidence within hours.
It could have been a clean fusion implosion with slow neutrons.
Not only that, it’s one of those “one weird trick” sites, only trying to get you to invest in their uranium stocks that they don’t identify for you unless you keep clicking.
The cult-leader’s name was Asahara Shoko, a fat guy with a whispy beard who gradually went blind; he would sometimes say he could float or fly.
Aum is a weird blend between Christianity, Islam, and Hinduism; paradise on earth involves helping Armageddon along, somehow, probably in a really scary way (which did play out, though they had tried unsuccessfully several times earlier).
The average believer was just a credulous dupe, but as with the Branch Davidians you had some really accomplished people going in for it, also.
They’d empty your bank account, cut off your contact with all your outside relatives, then the brain-washing would begin.
A lot of their people walked around with what looked like water-polo caps, numerous wires thereto affixed, the better to “pipe the Great Ones teachings directly through your skull, even when sleeping”.
Oh yeah, they also sometimes drank his bath water and PEE.
Get your engine revving yet..? Yeah, blechhhhhh...!
Japanese society is pretty rule-bound so sometimes if you’re a brainy, creative type that can’t hang with the whole straightjacket-society thing, then a kooky outfit like Aum can sometimes prove Just The Ticket.
Aum even had chemists from Tokyo University (Harvard of Japan), so when experts contended there was NO WAY Aum could home formulate SARIN, people were scared.
Their leader’s teachings had a scary penchant for mentioning VX, Sarin, Tabun and other agents, and there are rumors they made those, too.
They had carried out several tests in open-air, hoping to cause casualties but the effectiveness of such agents are highly subject to wind, etc., that is why they finally chose the closed airspace of the Tokyo subway system for another attack (which sent something like 10,000 panicky people to the hospital).
The agents were suspended in ~ 1 liter sealed liquid bags placed on subway car floors, then pierced with umbrella tips, the perps then making good their escape.
People above are saying an Aum nuke would be impossible but as long as they could get ahold of the HEU, I’m not totally sure I could agree.
There is an outside chance the story heard in the Ukraine might be true.
Funny there are so few photos left, I remember when it was the ONLY news story on TV.
(notice the water polo cap)
When they would walk around, most of them favored Osama-esque nightshirt/man-dress type apparel.
Interesting the the Nazi party evolved from a plan to set up secret societies of ideologically dedicated elites to rule German society, modeled on the Black Dragon society in Japan. .. by a German diplomat and spy recruiting agent, Karl Haushofer, who spent time studying in Japan post WW1. He did a great deal of work uniting Germans and Japanese into an axis, rebuilding a military counter to the USA and set up spy networks to collsborate. One of Haushofer’s German spies collected intelligence about the disposition of the fleet in Pearl Harbor and installations all over Oahu that was passed to Japan to facilitate their attack.
These secret societies use (d) mysticism as a bond. History Channel had a show about this: “ Last Secrets of the Axis”. Can we really say that Japan - and other nations - do not still have elites in secret societies bound by mysticism and fanaticism and dedicated to the old ways.

We even have evidence of a secret society aka “ deep state” pervading the top levels of our own government and other institutions
So is this story about a secret base in Australia believable? I would say yes. Perhaps in other countries, too. Inheritors of the research done by Japanese and German fanatics in WW2 Manchuria and elsewhere.
Why hasnt it been investigated and countered? Draw your own conclusions.
“Asahara Shoko is STILL in jail awaiting execution!”
ALL condemned prisoners are awaiting execution in Japan. The execution date is unannounced to all, including the prisoner. Every day could be the last one. The prisoner is just taken out of his cell and sent to the gallows. The public is only informed after the execution, sometimes days later.
