ALGAEFERT
Answer
IRONEX I, the first large-scale field experiment to directly test the feasibility of nuclear explosions for excavating harbors and constructing canals, emerged as the direct continuation of Martin's innovative hypothesis. This pioneering project aimed to harness the immense energy of nuclear reactions for practical engineering applications, transforming Martin's theoretical postulations into a hands-on demonstration of their real-world potential.
