The remnants of a 1953 nuclear test in Nevada serve as a stark reminder of the Cold War's legacy, where civil engineering confronted the catastrophic power of nuclear weapons. Recent developments indicate a renewed focus on nuclear capabilities among major powers like the U.S., Russia, and China, with upgrades and expansions underway. The current geopolitical climate suggests a shift towards increasing nuclear arsenals, moving away from the previously declining trend, raising concerns about potential future tests and the implications for global security.
