Cactus Dome - Runit Island, Marshall Islands During the late 1970s, the US government dug up 111,000 cubic yards of soil from the Bikini and Rongelap atolls and deposited it on Runit Island in an effort to clean up the radioactive debris left by their nuclear tests in the Pacific Proving Grounds. Its resting place would be in a 350-foot wide crater that had been created two decades earlier by an 18-kiloton nuclear test code-named Cactus. A quarter of a billion dollars later, this is what you get! source - atlasobscura This is exactly how all of Dorćol and lower Kalemegdan will look after this party. Get used to it!
