Blown Away. Mururoa is the home of the Centre d'Experimentation du Pacifique (Pacific Experimentation Centre), France’s nuclear testing agency. Between 1966 - when the French were forced to leave their former test site in Algeria - and 1995, France conducted 41 atmospheric and 138 underground tests at the Atoll. All that remains is a thin crescent-shaped strip of lightly forested beach, fifteen miles long.

The Last Laugh. Chirac’s resumption of nuclear testing at Mururoa was designed to tick off his old rival, former President Mitterand. He, in turn, gleefully relished the international outrage and humiliation suffered by Chirac. Even though dying of cancer, Mitterand gave a well-publicised interview to reporters, saying he had received so much cancer treatment he was “as radioactive as Mururoa Atoll”.
