The first time nuclear testing was done in the Pacific was in 1946. Tests were conducted at the Marshall Islands, Bikini Atoll and a few other "nondescript" sites. Testing continued by the US in the Pacific up until 1962.

France also conducted its own tests in French Polynesia, between 1966 and 1996.
