 | September 19, 1980 – An United States Air Force repairman doing routine maintenance in a Titan II ICBM silo in Arkansas drops a wrench socket which rolls off a work platform and falls to the bottom of the silo. The socket strikes the missile, causing a leak from a pressurized fuel tank. The missile complex and surrounding area is evacuated and eight and a half hours later, vapors within the sil... |  | 05/07/2006 | 1,255 |

 | This is where the bombs are loaded onto the submarines etc. The large building is the Explosives Handling Jetty. From this a road leads up the hill to 16 underground bunkers where weapons are stored. The remainder of the depot isn't hi res yet.
The submarine base is at Faslane which is immediately east of this location. | | 05/07/2006 | 256 |

 | Located in the central Aral Sea (45°0′N 59°10′E), Vozrozhdeniya Island was one of the main laboratories and testing sites for the Soviet Union government’s Microbiological Warfare Group. In 1948, a top-secret Soviet bioweapons laboratory was established here. It was here, according to just released documents, that the anthrax spores and the plague bacilli were developed and stored. ... | | 04/09/2006 | 463 |

 | This is a more detailed view (thanks to GoogleE update!) of the nuclear power plant in Philippsburg. It features two reactors at each ~1GW and the 2nd at ~1.4GW power. Clearly visible: the cooling towers being active and the dome of the block reactor.
Remark - there IS already a collection of KMzs available, but I know pretty much about that facilite (have been working there..) i... | | 03/25/2006 | 334 |

 | In 1942 Gruinard Island was the site of a biological warfare test. Eighty sheep were taken to the island, and a bomb filled with anthrax spores was exploded; the sheep began dying within days. Due to the durability of anthrax spores, decontamination was unsuccessful, and the island was quarantined until 1986, when a determined effort was made to decontaminate the island. It was finally decla... | | 02/02/2006 | 641 |

 | Orford Ness is a shingle spit on the Suffolk coast. The UK Atomic Weapons Research Establishment had a base on the site, and is believed to have developed the firing mechanisms for nuclear devices there. The distinctive-looking 'pagodas' which housed test facilities were designed to collapse in the event of an accidental explosion. The work finally ended there in 1971 and the site is now a n... | | 02/02/2006 | 477 |
