was scheduled for Monday,
postponed to Tuesday and then
put off indefinitely, perhaps
until next week.
“The weather pattern
throughout the rest of the week
appears to be more of the
same,” a spokesman for the
federal Energy Research and
Development Administration
said Tuesday. “We’ll take a
look at the weather on the
second and possibley determine
a detonation date at that time.”
The nuclear device is at the
bottom of a 4,760 foot shaft in
desert wasteland in southwest
ern Nevada. Federal authorities
gave its power as in the range
of 200 kilotons to one megaton.
That makes it a medium to
large explosive by modern
nuclear weapons standards,
giving it a punch equal to 15 of
the Hiroshima bombsat the
minimum, or 50 at the
maximum.
