Sea Gypsies : The Plutonium Dome (Runit Dome Marshall Islands)
In the middle of the pacific ocean, the sailing ship Infinity and her ragtag crew stumble upon the Runit Dome and one of the most dangerous islands on earth. Enewetak Atoll, the birthplace of the hydrogen bomb and the Anthropocene, this tiny atoll absorbed the nuclear equivalent of 1.5 Hiroshima bombs a day for 12 years. That legacy waits near the beach, in a giant unguarded crumbling concrete dome.

Cococnut Zen - Infinity visits Majuro in the Marshall Islands
zhlédnutí 3,7KPřed 3 lety
A long while ago, Infinity Expedition spent a whole lot of months in Majuro in the Marshall Islands doing extensive repairs. When we weren't working, we had some time to meet the locals and see how climate change was effecting this tiny country, just a few feet above the waves. We also ran into some musicians and made this video for them. Thanks to all the wonderful people in the Marshall Islands

    The Super Duper had to be tested and developed because it could be , in comparison to chemical pollution nuclear radiation, comparatively safe, considering we are breathing in plastics eating plastics which are in are brains and blood, yes radiation is dangerous but plastics are a million times worse. When the bombs were detonated, the radiation encircled the earth, so it is in everyone's bones.

    Showed the Ivy Mike pre-detonation but the actual footage of the shot is from Castle Bravo. I can see why , the only footage available form Mike isn’t very good , the camera like overlapped the first flash with the fireball growing , they didn’t capture that test with good quality like bravo and many others afterwards , specially for this was an earlier test . Could just have posted the castle bravo test on its entirety .

    thks for that visit and report. stayed in 1981 at Majuro and Kwajalein Island. Tried to visit the Prinz Eugen Wreck what was denied . no problem no risk. sorry for the inhabitants which have no chance to defend themselves. now again German tanks (captured) in the streets of Moscow. My father as a tank driver stopped 40 km, 40 years before my visit, in front of Moscow. Crazy People still today. Por ucranians.

    There are probably so many things the public are never told even in this high tech information led world. What puzzles me, certainly here in the UK during the present climate change debate is how many people are critical that we did not expand nuclear power generation in the past considering the true cost and risks involved. This Pacific dumping ground must surely be an out of sight out of mind situation. I wonder what lurks in the continental US and Russia, much closer to home.

    I worked on Runit as a PFC in the Army. We lived on Lowja and were boated back and forth each day. We wore only shorts, jungle boots, paper mask, taped yellow rubber boots, film badge and tld to measure our exposure. If we read high after coming off the hot line where the crater is. They would have you swim in t he ocean to rinse. Many of us have died from cancers and other conditions. I just had a brain tumor removed this past February. Many of us teenagers at the time

    The Geiger counter absolutely can detect gamma rays given off by plutonium. However, most of the radiation given off from plutonium is in the form of Alpha and Neutron radiation. Alpha is short ranged and cannot penetrate the metal container of the detector, where neutrons are not able to be detected by a geiger counter since they don't react with the gas inside the detector. The amount of gamma radiation given off by Plutonium is more than enough to detect if it is present. That being said, if there is enough plutonium to be detected, it would be 1000 times more than needed to poison you to death, since plutonium is even more dangerous as a poison than as a source of radiation. Oh by the way it also bursts into flame the instant it is in contact with air, so you have that going for you too.

    I spent a month in one of the blast craters drilling core samples out of the bottom of the seafloor. I'm still alive 39 years later and we had zero PPE, nothing but a rad badge and a battery geiger counter. The dome has been there since 1975, longer that the hippie's have breathed a free breath. I would guess the dome will last a few hundred years and by then our freedom will be gone too.
