Description

This is the mushroom cloud caused by the French 440 kilotons nuclear bomb test, code-named Encelade, over Mururoa Atoll in the South Pacific, June 1971.
The caption I had with this photo was "Every Cloud has a Silver Lining".

I could be mistaken, but I believe this is a photo of a French nuclear test over Mururoa Atoll in the South Pacific code-named Encelade. It was detonated in June 1971 and had a yield of 440 kilotons.

Just in case you were wondering :P hope I've got my facts right.
