… Test Event Occurred Between South Africa And Antarctica In 1979. "A new study has revealed a secret Israeli nuclear test is likely to have sent radioactive fallout across Australia. In September 1979, a nuclear explosion was picked by the US 'Vela' satellite from between South Africa and Antarctica near the Marion and Prince Edward islands in the sub-antarctic Indian Ocean, Perth Now reported.
After the 'flash' there was a lot of speculation about what the source was, with allegations that it came from Israel's nuclear testing…." Main page link Also… link Amicalement Armand

Very old news. Remember talking about this in the mid-1980s. |

Don't they already have between 80-160 warheads by now, unofficially of course. Dan |

I remember it from then, too. I prefer to believe that it was cultists trying to awaken Cthulhu. |

At the time there was some concern it was a South African bomb. Yes, Dan, that sounds about right. Perhaps more. |

I prefer to believe that it was cultists trying to awaken Cthulhu. Or was it human forces using a nuke to take out an invasion? Perhaps a city of the Deep Ones got a little too big for their britches and some human nuclear power had to show them who's the boss! Perhaps ole Cthulhu himself got to eat hard radiation?!? |

I'm sure there are other "secrets" out there that are still not widely known … Or ever will be. |
