The detection of nuclear explosions in space by observing the effects of explosion-induced ionization on the absorption of radio waves is considered. Ionizations due to explosion X rays, γ rays, and β rays are considered separately, and the dependence of the absorption on explosion characteristics, distance from the earth's atmosphere, and frequency of the radio wave is determined.
