The Radioactivity Sonde (放射能ゾンデ,   Hōshanō Zonde) is a device used in the 1967 film, Son of Godzilla.

History

Showa Series

Son of Godzilla

The Radioactivity Sonde was a major part of the Weather Control Capsule. It would spay a gas that would change the climate. However, something went wrong, and the Sonde exploded, releasing radiation onto Solgell Island. The radiation caused a heat wave and terrible storms. The radiation also caused the native giant mantis to mutate into Kamacuras. Much later, while Godzilla and Minilla were fighting Kumonga, a second Radioactivity Sonde was deployed, and this time functioned properly, starting a huge snowstorm which cooled the island down.

Trivia

  • In reality, Sondes are probes which are used to gather information about their surroundings. Sondes are commonly used in weather balloons.
