What are Nuclear Test Sites?

There are various engineering technologies and support facilities, and a fixed field dedicated to nuclear testing. Engineering facilities mainly include nuclear explosive device assembly plant, detonation control station, test station, meteorological observation station, contamination decontamination station, power supply station, effect test fortifications, etc., as well as living logistics support area. Atmospheric nuclear test sites require open terrain, far from residential areas. The underground nuclear test site requires that the rock medium is silicate, there are no large faults, and it is not in the seismic zone. The vertical nuclear test site requires a relatively uniform underground rock medium; the flat-hole nuclear test site needs to select a larger mountain.
