  • A <a href="https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Little_Boy">Little Boy</a> atomic bomb, the same type of weapon dropped on Hiroshima, Japan, in August 1945.

This photograph is of a postwar Little Boy unit, and is not the exact bomb dropped over Japan.

  • The Bomb: The Cuban Missile Crisis
    See how a power play by Soviet leader Nikita Khrushchev backfired, sparking a dangerous confrontation with the U.S. — the Cuban Missile Crisis. Over fifty years later, we still don’t know everything about what happened; many Soviet records are still secret. But this much is clear: October 1962 was the closest the world has ever come to thermonuclear war.
  • The Bomb: Public Dialogue and Atomic Culture
    In 1946, fear and faith in science collide. For the first time, Americans begin to learn more about the bomb.
