Figure 1  Airscape of the three surface nuclear blasts of the historical megaton order China test conducted in the silk road. Refer to table 1 of reference 1 for a nuclear test cord of 3 bolides by #CNT6, #CNT21 and #CNT15 from the left. The distance between two ground zeros of the bolide in the center inside and of a bolide to the front right is 20 kilometers. The size of the diameter of a bolide in the figure is proportional to the value calculated from nuclear blast power. Front is the northeast direction, for 400 kilometers, Tunhuang. The right inside and metropolitan Urumchi which is Uygur in 380 kilometers of northwestward. In the left inside, Rouran and Taklamakan Desert. Nuclear sand fell out on the part of the red purple band of oval, and caused an radiation disaster. A similar nuclear hazard map is also drawn for two other surface  nuclear blasts, but omitted here. The population of the area with the acute fatal risk was estimated to be a hundred and ninety thousand 190,000 people by a hazard of nuclear sand from 3 times of large surface nuclear blast.

A huge amount of nuclear sand fell out in wide regions,
and more than one million people suffered death or injury.

Peaceful weapon for Uyghur people
