description Reggane Oasis Overview
Reggane is an oasis town in Adrar Province in southwestern Algeria, within the Sahara. It became historically significant because France conducted its first atmospheric nuclear weapons test, codenamed Gerboise Bleue, near Reggane on 13 February 1960. The test formed part of France's early nuclear-weapons program and made the region an important site in the history of twentieth-century nuclear testing.
