Expert claims Russia tests reach fission fusion fission bomb
Nuclear physicist Ralph E. Lapp told a congressional subcommittee that Japanese scientists found fallout patterns linking Soviet tests to most radiation in Japan and suggested Russia achieved a fission fusion fission device. He cited 70 percent of Japan fallout from Soviet tests and 30 percent from U S tests. Two local San Diego earthquakes were recorded by amateur seismologist Fred Robinson, with no damage reported. The quakes were centered near the area and measured 1.5 and slightly stronger on the scale.
