SNIPPET: “Vienna - The Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty Organization (CTBTO) finally confirmed Friday in Vienna that North Korea’s announced atomic test was in fact an explosion, and not an earthquake.
Using data from 61 stations of its global seismic monitoring network, the United Nation’s nuclear test watchdog also narrowed down the epicentre of Monday’s blast to within an area of 500 square kilometres.
‘There is no doubt there is an explosion-like signal in what we detected,’ said Lassina Zerbo, who heads the CTBTO’s data centre.
It was the first such confirmation from the organization, after sources close to the CTBTO had made similar indications earlier in the week.”
Well, it is official now. It is impossible to hide a nuclear explosion of that magnitude. And 0bama just goes to the golf course. . . . .
