"This is not something which is just wild speculation," that lawyer and author, Gordon G. Chang, told reporters Monday. "For more than a decade, US officials have been worried about the North Koreans taking apart a [nuclear] device, smuggling the parts into the United States and reassembling it in the location of their choice."
"When you talk about radiation, clearly this could be one of the things that the drones are doing," Chang told Forbes Newsroom, "and that would explain why they're over residential areas because the device could be planted in one of those places".
Crucially, more current reports from the Geiger Counter World Map do not show the radiation spikes at this time. The Environmental Protection Agency notes that radiation emission rates like CPM do not always match absorption by the human body and even changes in weather, like rain, can lessen the risk, making CPM a challenging tool to assess true risk.
