Why did the US Nuke Mississippi Twice? (Project Dribble)--Phenomenon Explained

In the 1960's in the midst of the Cold War, the US government descended upon rural Mississippi to conduct not one but two underground nuclear tests to determine the science behind hiding nuclear tests from observations. It's a story of drilling rigs, radioactive frogs, and lightning strikes all in the piney woods of the Magnolia State. Oh and me triggering Boomers because I sometimes don't pronounce nuclear or salmon the way they want... but blame the conflicting sources for the pronunciation of the latter.

I was there! In the fifth grade we sat quietly in our Hattiesburg classroom waiting for the earthquake. Afterwards on our way to pick up sisters saw folks in bunny suits with mysterious gas probes leaping into the sewers.

Woah! What a memory to have! An interesting and perhaps concerning thing to experience. Were there any radiation findings?

@Loren Klein Love your shirt. Do you own a Cessna 172? Just curious.

[@davidburke709]

Great topic and good video. Someone ought to write a book about it...

[@lorencklein]

Thank you! I had found your dissertation in the initial research, and it wasn't until my second passthrough of the script I realized that you had it published as a book. Ended up buying the Kindle and hardcover editions!

​@@lorencklein I'd gladly sign it for you should we run across one another. I was at an event at the Dribble Site earlier this year. It is a beautiful piece of land - I'd gladly live there. By the way of coincidence my next one is on Lake Peigneur! I've been chewing on it for a while now.
