Description/Abstract:
EXPERIMENTAL ARRAY...NUCLEAR DETONATIONS ARE CONDUCTED AT THE NTS NOT ONLY AS A PART OF THE WEAPONS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAM BUT ALSO TO PROVIDE NEEDED INFORMATION AND DATA E.G. NEUTRON CROSS SECTION OR TIME OF FLIG NT MEASUREMENTS OF USE IN OTHER PHASES OF THE ATOMIC ENERGY PROGRAM. THIS AERIAL VIEW SHOWS THE COMPLEX ARRAY OF EQUIPMENT THAT WAS USED AT A MULTI-PURPOSE NUCLEAR TEST DURING 1966. THE DETONATION POINT WAS HU NDREDS OF FEET BELOW THE CONVERGENCE OF THE SIGNAL CABLES THE INSTRUME NTS TO RECORD THE TEST RESULTS WERE HOUSED IN THE TRAILERS TO THE RIGH T. SURFACE SUBSIDENCES FROM TWO PREVIOUS DETONATIONS ARE VISIBLE--LEF T OF CENTER AND UPPER LEFT OF THE PHOTO..
