Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Composite "false color" multispectral satellite image of Enewetak Atoll, Marshall Islands.

Arrow and radiation trefoil indicate the Ivy Mike nuclear test crater, which vaporized the island of Elugelab.

The islands of Teiter, Bogarikk, and part of Bogon also appear to have been vaporized by additional detonation(s). Devices unknown.

NASA EO-1 ALI bands used were 10 (SWIR), 8 (SWIR) and 2 (blue). The image was pan-sharpened and resampled to 15m resolution.

This image is a composite of two different satellite images; a visible seam is present due to this. Unfortunately the freely available alternatives from NASA included lower resolution, greater cloud cover, and scanline artifacts. (EO-1, Landsat, ASTER imagery)
