This film reports on an Advanced Research Project Agency (ARPA) experiment of the Vela Uniform series executed by the Defense Atomic Support Agency (DASA), with the support of the Department of the Interior and the US AEC. Operation Long Shot, an underground nuclear test in the fall of 1965, was conducted on Amchitka, close to the western end of the Aleutian Islands. The objective of Vela Uniform is to increase the U. S. capability to detect, identify and locate underground nu- clear detonations at intercontinental ranges. The primary objective of Long Shot was to investigate possible travel- time anomalies associated with seismic events occurring in island-arc structures. Such anomalies could seriously affect the accuracy of locations made by long range seismic measurements. Another objective was to compare the seismic signatures of man-mad e x versus natural events (earthquakes) occurring in such complex geologic struc- tures. The film gives details on core drilling, methods to assure safe containment, nature of the rock, lowering of the casing, lowering of the nuclear device, stemming opera- tions, seismic instruments in the close-in monitoring program, the long-range seismic measurement program in Alaska, Canada, the United States and elsewhere in the world, the detonation, and measurements and results.
