You don't have to be a CIA spook to track the 10,000 nuclear warheads still harbored by the United States. In keeping with its long tradition as a nuclear arms watchdog, NRDC recently teamed up with the Federation of American Scientists to produce an interactive, three-dimensional map using Google Earth photo-graphic satellite technology. The map reveals, among other things, that the United States maintains 18 weapons storage facilities in 12 states and 6 European countries. More than 2,300 warheads are housed in a facility in Bangor, Washington, although about half of them may be found on any given day aboard ballistic-missile submarines in the Pacific Ocean.
