Forest fires in the Jemez Mountains northwest of Santa Fe. Big news because Los Alamos had to be evacuated, and "thousands of sophisticated experiments underway at the lab, where the world's first atomic bomb was developed in 1945, remain at a standstill." I hope that everyone I know in the area is safe, that the fires don't explode some experiments into nuclear meltdown, and that access to climbing in Las Conchas is unchanged.
I wonder if the fires will affect construction of the nuclear materials production facility that no one's talking about?
