Since the Treaty opened for signature in 1996, a majority of the world has banned nuclear testing and created a global monitoring system to verify compliance. If there is a nuclear test anywhere on our planet, the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test Ban Treaty will detect it immediately.
When the Comprehensive Nuclear-Test-Ban Treaty enters into force, the CTBTO will be ready to gather facts on the ground.
No matter how deep, how high, how far away - the CTBTO global alarm will sound. The world will be alerted and our planet will be safer, because with the CTBTO nuclear testing can no be kept a secret.
