Critical Airspace Warning: Extreme Radiation Hazard at Kwajalein Atoll - Greek City Times
Fucking why? Say why? The article was useless.
The why doesn't seem to be public. Speculation is a military test, perhaps some radar test.
radar doesn't make things radioactive
Navy, Air force or something is probably playing with the new Space Fence that is on Kwajalein (or any of the shit ton of radars they have over there).
2.69MW radiated power in the microwave band could be enough to make any PAX aboard an aircraft into a way too hot pocket of meat.
Goddamnit, now I'm hungry and I'm out of hot pockets.
Says to contact base to deconflict with radiation hazard. Which would suggest it isn't nuclear radiation as that would just be contamination that isn't under control and able to be deconflicted with. Probably a powerful radar or electromagnetic weapon.

Bunches of prototype radar and probably a sneaky x band pointed at nk & China.
