Excerpt:
However, the effects produced by a nuclear explosion were not fully realized until the Johnston Island Test in 1962. This nuclear blast had a yield of 1.4 megatons at an altitude of 250 miles. The explosion damaged a number of low earth orbit satellites and caused malfunctions and early failure of others. Another effect that was noted during the blast was a blackout up to 600 miles away of high frequency radio communications that lasted for hours. It was caused by disruption of the ionosphere. It also popped circuit breakers, street lights went out, burglar alarms rang, and power lines went down in Honolulu, about 800 miles away. In Nov. 1962, all above ground testing was halted and our testing and analysis was limited to underground testing, analysis of the existing atmospheric test data, nonnuclear simulation, and theoretical calculations.
Thanks for the links. I’ve also thought that Iran could probably borrow a nuke from North Korea if they didn’t have one ready at the most opportune time. And the alliance between Iran and Venezuela means the missile range doesn’t have to be so long to hit us.
Somebody not too long ago posted some links regarding the unchecked flights from Iran to Venezuela. It’s absolutely ridiculous for people to be forced to have (basically) naked scans in order to go on a plane BUT OUR BORDERS ARE WIDE OPEN FOR HEZBOLLAH AND HAMAS TO JUST WALTZ IN. Nobody could be that stupid so I have to figure it’s deliberate; DHS is straining out the gnat (of white-haired grandmas in wheelchairs wanting to get on a plane) in order to make us feel like they’re protecting us when in reality they are swallowing a whole herd of camels (deliberately leaving our doors and windows WIDE OPEN - and forcing AZ, TX, etc to leave them wide open - when we know there are murderers looking for a way to kill us and our children).
