Abstract/Summary
Set in 1956 in Maralinga, South Australia, at the height of the Cold War. The Menzie's Government has just welcomed the British military to undertake atomic bomb testing. Paranoia runs rife and nuclear bombs are not the only things being put to the test. The series is inspired by true events of British nuclear bomb tests in the 1950s at remote Maralinga, in outback South Australia. Major Leo Carmichael, an Australian Army engineer and World War II hero, has to keep the secret military base functioning smoothly. His job of testing the most dangerous weapon in the world is made no easy task, with his absent-minded General, Crankford, new meteorologist Dr Eva Lloyd-George, who starts asking questions, and the federal government and press watching his every move. Despite the land being deemed uninhabited, Leo is faced with the arrival of a family of Aboriginal Australians who are curious about the giant clouds that explode occasionally.
