President Donald Trump has ordered the United States to resume nuclear testing immediately at the Nevada Test Site, where the U.S. last conducted a nuclear explosive test over 30 years ago. The site currently relies on computer modeling instead of physical explosions. Experts indicate that restarting physical nuclear testing could take years and cost millions of dollars.
