This shot was taken in 1968 by the French army in the Fangataufa atoll. Codenamed Canopus, it yielded 2600 kt. Although this picture, like many of the series, is a work of the French Army (as far as I know) this is an original scan from a hardcopy I possess, and processed to remove dust and scratches. A strange view on such paradise-like landscape... [url="http://digg.com/offbeat_news/Beautiful_Image_of_French_Nuclear_Test_Codename_Canopus_PIC"]Source[/url]
