Bomb at seabed peril prompts risky recovery in Spain
In Palomares Spain officials said the missing 20 megaton hydrogen bomb found at 2,500 feet is at risk of slipping deeper into the Mediterranean. Navy divers aim to reposition the device for safer retrieval amid favorable weather as Alvin or Aluminaut craft assist two miles below. The operation, located near a submerged hill, seeks to lift the bomb and parachute to a nearby area for cables, with no timetable and low risk of a secondary explosion.
