You might want to check out Benford’s Deep Time, but really, we haven’t encountered much writing about this. We recommend visiting the Office of Legacy Management website for an updated list of sites requiring mediation and along their current state of marking. Keep in touch!

Can you recommend any further reading about the designs/monument proposals for these sites?

I’m familiar with Thomas A. Sebeok’s propositions regarding nuclear waste repositories, but I have to imagine there is more out there and that this is an evolving dialog.

Great stuff!

I hope that in a few years, thanks to you, children may learn more about WWII planes by using spotter cards for mobile nuclear transport infrastructures.
