The Limited Test Ban Treaty forbids nuclear testing in every area but?
The Limited Test Ban Treaty forbids nuclear testing in all areas except underground. Nuclear testing in the atmosphere, under water, and in outer space are all banned.
What is the Limited Test Ban Treaty?
It banned nuclear testing above ground. 116 countries signed the treaty.
When was nuclear testing finally stopped?
August 5th, 1963 Three of the four nuclear powers sign a limited treaty that bans most, but not all, nuclear weapons testing. The 1963 treaty only banned "Atmospheric" tests (in the air, space, and underwater) not "most". Testing just moved underground and continued at about the same pace, maybe even faster for a while.
Why do people think nuclear testing above ground was eventually banned?
They learned about how far fallout can travel and affect people outside blast zones.
Did the nuclear test ban treaty outlaw all nuclear testing?
Short answer: no. One of the treaties in the 1960's banned above ground testing and all countries (the US, Soviet Union, France, and China) have followed that ban. The US and the Soviet Union agreed, in a separate treaty, to stop underground testing in the 1970's and both have followed that treaty. Other countries, India and Pakistan and possibly North Korea, did not agree to ban all testing and have conducted underground nuclear testing in the last ten years.
What country was the first to start testing nuclear weapons?
