    Bikini atoll – Life after nuclear bombs

    The Saratoga is one of the world’s largest shipwrecks; it was sunk during what was known as ‘Operation Crossroads’. Twenty-three atomic bombs were test-detonated over and within the Bikini Atoll shortly after the end of the Second World War. It is a story of total destruction, but also a story of how life returns.
