Hiroshima today still glows:
WHAT? I coulda sworn I read/heard that no one could go near the Bikini’s for a quadzillion years due to the nuke tests. Ohhhh. Glow in the dark marine life. Me likey. LOL! Of course if the “lyin’ king” told me if “I liked my Bikini I could keep my Bikini”, I would most surely have believed. NOT!
My daughter, wife, and I were on Bikini Atoll from the end of February to almost the end of March 2006. 30 days in the land of massive radiation :) . No ill effects whatsoever, one of the 11 sail boats with us had a Geiger counter and background radiation was just slightly higher than normal. There were some areas that bulldozers had moved surface soil and vegetation into piles that were a little hotter, but not much. Bikini was resoiled and replanted with Coconut trees, very orderly like an orchard. The only danger that still exists is in drinking the coconut water. Still Cesium Isotopes in the ground soil. Not bad for adults, but not good for growing children. And the sea life was spectacular and very edible. The Bikinians could go home but the 1 to 2 hundred million they get from the US every years keeps them away. Got to dive on the HIMS Nagato and the USS Saratoga that were sunk from the first two fission tests, AWESOME DIVE!!
