Mushroom cloud over Yanggang Province
The explosion occurred Thursday, 9.9.04, in North Korea, "not far" from a military installation that holds ballistic missles, and near the Chinese border. Sec/State Colin Powell said there was no indication it was a nuclear event of any kind.
The mushroom-shaped cloud was described as being 2.1 to 2.5 miles in diameter. The resulting crater was noticed by satellite. Thursday was the 46th anniversary of North Korea's founding.
