On July 16, 1945, the first nuclear weapon was detonated. The code name for the test was Trinity.
Today, more than 12,300 nuclear weapons exist, & peer reviewed research shows that a nuclear exchange of less than 3% of that could lead to the deaths of billions.
No one wins a nuclear war.

I've written a comprehensive report on plutonium pit production - including a critical look at the history, the risks and costs, and the science of Pu aging. Short story: new pits are unnecessary, dangerous, and expensive and alternatives provide a safer future. Please read and circulate! #NukeSky
Plutonium Pit Production
The US plan to build new plutonium pits for nuclear weapons is unnecessary, risky, and dangerous to the health of workers and communities.

Some additional essays (among countless others) we'd like to point your attention to cover many topics ranging from women in the anti-nuclear movement in the pacific islands, women and historical nuclear protests, and women in the UK protesting the nuclear program.

Any resumption of full-scale nuclear tests would be technically unnecessary and geopolitically disastrous. The latest from my colleague, Jennifer Knox, @ucs.org explains how scientists helped usher in the Partial Test Ban and reminds us that we can do it again, and do even better.
