Catastrophe on Nand Devi

From seattlepi.com, “In 1965, Schaller was part of an American spy team that tried to place a nuclear-powered surveillance device on top of Nanda Devi, one of the highest mountains in the world.

That mission was a spectacular failure. The device and its nuclear core vanished along with, or so the CIA hoped, any news about it.” Looks like we might have found evidence of a leak. Interesting comments in Pete Takeda’s blog posting.
