What the hell happened in Corpus Christi?Back in the early 50's they did some airborne testing to see how radiation and biological agents would spread. It's harmless. Operation_LAC |

There's really nothing to worry about. Just don't go digging around the Project Gasbuggy site near Rifle, CO, and you'll be fine. The National Atomic Museum in ABQ (they renamed it recently and I can't think of the name) does bus tours of the Nevada test site twice a year around the weekends when Trinity is open. Nuclear tourism is actually a thing. Quote HistoryQuoted:

Went on a TDY in about 1978 or so to Dugway army air field that was a little uncomfortable do to because of all the chemical weapons that were stored there. We had to ware our gas masks on our belts the whole 33 days we were there. I was with the First Tactical fighter wing with our F15As on one of our first deployments. Saw a lot for bombed out material on the ranges around there including some B29's. Spent most of the weekends exploring around the western side of Dugway during 2013 while deployed at Hill AFB. Found all kinds of exploded ordnance and other interesting items while tooling around in the desert. Aint no telling what the hell I was around that could have or will kill me. |

I went to Trinity & the NAM in 2001 and 2003 or 4, and I remember the bus tour offers. Yes, they left from ABQ to go to the NTS. The Trinity site is located on the White Sands Missile Range, which is west of Albuquerque, both of which are located located in central NM. They don't do "tours" from Alb to NTS i.e. that are +10 hours/+650 miles one way, that's absurd. |

Well, perhaps I'm mistaken, but the NAM was selling the tours at the time. I think maybe you had to drive yourself to Nevada. Oh, and you'd be amazed what isn't considered "absurd" out here in the sticks. Quote HistoryQuoted:

I'll never forget the day I was hunting mulies near Rifle, CO and walked up on some pipe thing with a plaque on it. I don't remember exactly what it said but something about a big boom many feet below where I was standing, I remember thinking why the area wasn't restricted.
I did what any flatlander would do, pulled out my camera took a picture and kept hunting. I always wondered why the local well water wasn't impacted I'm guessing the explosion was too deep to impact the relatively shallow wells used for residential water. |

Negative. Gasbuggy took place in NM. Project Rio Blanco? Project Rulison was southwest of Rifle https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Rulison Project Rio Blanco was northwest of Rifle. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Project_Rio_Blanco Btw, the projects worked. There is great gas flow at the test sights. With one problem. The gas is radioactive and too hot for use. There is even a restriction on how close modern rigs can drill, I'm thinking it's around a half or three quarters of a mile. |
