摘要

Few would guess that islands once used to test atomic bombs would become refuges for threatened species. Populations of mammals and birds recently translocated to Hermite Island, in the Montebello Islands group in the state's north-west, are so far thriving in their new homes. At precisely 8am on 3 October 1952, a momentous flash and closely following roar shattered the tranquility of a little-known island group 120 kilometres off the Pilbara coast in northern Western Australia. After one second, themushroom cloud had reached 500 metres into the sky and after about four minutes had billowed past 3,000 metres. Following the massive impact of the supersonic pressure wave, large amounts of sand, water and solid fragments of warship fell across much of the nearest island.
