We felt that we ought to do what we could to help the United States government. At least that s the way I feel about it now, and I think I felt that way then. I don t think we thought of it as very good science. We got some science out of it. For example, in [Operation] Wigwam, one of the very interesting results was that the radioactivity seemed to be in very thin layers. You remember that was an underwater explosion at a depth of around two or three thousand feet. It did broach the surface, b...ut there was not much of a mushroom cloud. I don t remember there was any mushroom cloud, just a big bump on the surface. Some radioactivity escaped into the air, but most of it went into the water. It went into the water in a series of sheet-like layers. 52 Sharp: Very spread out? Revelle: Well, they weren t very continuous. We made one series of measurements the meter would jump like this [sketches meter reading on paper] every now and then and then jump back again as you kept your instrument going down.
