Mururoa 50 years on
It's been 50 years since Prime Minister Norman Kirk sent the HMNZS Otago and it's 242 crew off on a mission to protest nuclear testing at Mururoa Atoll, in French Polynesia. This Friday will be a ceremony to officially recognise the men's sacrifices, many of whom have been left with serious health issues due to radiation exposure.
