Brown University Lecture Series Presents: "The 70th Anniversary of the Dawn of the Atomic Age”

This year marks the 70th anniversary of the dawn of the atomic age.   The first detonation of a nuclear weapon at Alamogordo, New Mexico on July 16,1945 was followed in short order by the first use of nuclear weapons in war, at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.  In the months that followed, the scientific community and policy makers in the United States, the USSR, and elsewhere struggled to come to terms with the implications of what they had wrought.
