Experts will study the 10 km area contaminated when two US nuclear bombs fell to ground four decades ago
It has been confirmed that CIEMAT, the Centre for Energy and Environment Investigation, will start work in March on mapping out radiation levels in the Palomares area of Almería.
The detailed three-dimensional map of the 10 km area affected by the US nuclear bombs which fell to ground four decades ago could take up to two years to complete.
The accident happened when a B-52 aircraft collided with a refuelling plane mid-air, and dropped its four hydrogen bombs. Two were found intact.
