That seems to confirm that there was no test by South Africa. I've been long aware of the Vela incident and to the best of my knowledge the concensus is that it was of meteoric origin. The suggestion has been made that the explosion was a test on Prince Edward Island but an active volcanic peak in the deep waters of the southern ocean does not seem to be practical site for a test. -- Regards, Eric Stevens |

Eric Stevens:
Thanks. That seems to confirm that there was no test by South Africa. Does it, now? I've been long aware of the Vela incident and to the best of my knowledge the concensus is that it was of meteoric origin. The suggestion has been made that the explosion was a test on Prince Edward Island but an active volcanic peak in the deep waters of the southern ocean does not seem to be practical site for a test.

The suggestion has been made that the explosion was a test on Prince Edward Island but an active volcanic peak in the deep waters of the southern ocean does not seem to be practical site for a test. It seems the South Africans built an underground test site in the Kalahari desert. However, no tests were ever conducted there because the US exposed the site after an SR-71 overflight. and threats from the French who were in a deal to provide a nuclear power station. There is no doubt that there was Israeli-South African collaboration in the design and exchange of nuclear material. The big collaboration was in co-development of ballistic missiles and the use of several South African missile ranges. It is quite possible that the Prince Edward Islands (actually two islands) area was used for ship borne missile tests. South Africa maintains a weather station on the larger of the two, Marion Island. It is not the sort of place any sane person would want to take a South Seas vacation. ....unless you were on your way to see penguins in Antartica. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Prince_Edward_Islands As far as the "Vela Incident" being a detected test of a South African or Israeli nuclear weapon, neither party has confirmed or denied. (...and it would probably not have been on the island as that would not have been practical) South Africa has been producing Israeli weapons under license since the early 1960s starting with the Uzi sub-machinegun, then the South African version of the Galil rifle, the R4. This is basically an improved AK-47. Then the South African military made a deal to use the Israeli upgrade blueprints to the French Mirage III fighter making the SAAF "Cheetah" the African cousin of the Israeli "Kfir". -- Regards, Savageduck |

I'm not too sure about the Israelis either. South Africa collaborated with Israel and Taiwan on nuclear weapons development. South Africa ultimately built seven or eight atomic bombs in 1987-88, but dismantled them in 1989 and forswore nuclear weapons thereafter. The so-called "Vela Incident" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vela_Incident remains controversial, politically if not technically, but I, who am not a conspiracy theorist, am quite convinced that the Vela satellite detected an atmospheric nuclear test. -- I agree with almost everything that you have said and almost everything that you will say in your entire life. usenet *at* davidillig dawt cawm |
