Activities of the National Monitoring System are summarized for the period March 1 to June 15, 1953, during which eleven nuclear devices were fired at the Nevada Proving Grounds durirg Operation Upshot-Knothole. The program employed a world-wide network of 125 sampling locations. Each station collected samples of atmospheric dusts/or radiometric analysis. A comparison is made of air concentrations and fall-out activities. Data are tabulated. (C.H.).

In connection with the Upshot-Knothole test series in network consisting of 95 U.S. and 26 forcign stations was set up. Of the 11 devices detonated, ranging in yield from 0.2 to 60 kt, highier activity was found for lower bursts than from air drops. Information relating to the optimum spacing of stations in a gummed film network and the possibility of missing local areas of intense fallout are discussed. (W.D.M.).

How the scientific community overlooked, ignored, and denied the catastrophic fallout of decades of nuclear testing in the American West In December of 1950, President Harry Truman gave authorization for the Atomic Energy Commission to conduct weapons tests and experiments on a section of a Nevada gunnery range. Over the next eleven years, more than a hundred detonations were conducted at the Nevada Test Site, and radioactive debris dispersed across the communities just downwind and through much of the country. In this important work, James C. Rice tells the hidden story of nuclear weapons testing and the negligence of the US government in protecting public health. Downwind of the Atomic State focuses on the key decisions and events shaping the Commission’s mismanagement of radiological contamination in the region, specifically on how the risks of fallout were defined and redefined, or, importantly, not defined at all, owing to organizational mistakes and the impetus to keep atomic testing going at all costs. Rice shows that although Atomic Energy Commission officials understood open-air detonations injected radioactive debris into the atmosphere, they did not understand, or seem to care, that the radioactivity would irrevocably contaminate these communities. The history of the atomic Southwest should be a wake-up call to everyone living in a world replete with large, complex organizations managing risky technological systems. The legacy of open-air detonations in Nevada pushes us to ask about the kinds of risks we are unwittingly living under today. What risks are we being exposed to by large organizations under the guise of security and science?
