U.S. to investigate nuclear waste site on Marshall Islands

The video discusses the Dome in the Marshall Islands, which contains radioactive waste from US nuclear tests conducted between 1946 and 1958. The Dome, built in the late 1970s, was a temporary solution to contain radioactive ash and soil. Rising sea levels now threaten the Dome, and the Department of Energy is required to investigate its condition and potential risks to the environment and local communities.

What was the primary purpose of the Dome built in the Marshall Islands?

How many nuclear weapons tests did the US conduct at Bikini and Anawetic atolls?

What significant event is associated with the Bravo hydrogen bomb?
