It's well-known that Britain tested atomic weapons at Maralinga in South Australian in the 1950s, but history has virtually forgotten that weapons were also tested at the nearby Emu Field. In a shroud of secrecy, experimental and unstable atomic bombs were detonated in the outback, and a terrifying black mist spread across the landscape. Why were the British there, what did they do and what lingering affects did the tests have on the local people? Mat speaks to Associate Professor Elizabeth Tynan to find out. Her new book The Secret of Emu Field is available now!
