The Day After - on the threat of nuclear weapons


Nuclear weapons - a documentary


Watch this documentary which explores the evolution of thermonuclear weapons from the time of the Manhattan Project and the dropping of the atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki throught the Cuban missile crisis to the end of the Cold War and the threats that still remain.


This is a lesson a whole new generation has to learn again as political and military leaders, especially in the West find the prospect of using nuclear weapons quite successful.

This is the 1983 film The Day After Tomorrow that made such an impression on my generation


One of the best educators on the dangers of nuclear weapons is Dr. Helen Caldicott
