Scientists Probe 1979 Ocean Nuclear Signal Debate
A Carter era panel reevaluated a September 1979 satellite signal thought to show a nuclear test off South Africa. They leaned toward a space event such as a meteoroid impact, amid claims of political influence and a suppressed Navy study. The controversy centers on whether the event was nuclear or nonnuclear and why the report delayed release.
