Atomic Age: Discovery and Evolution of Nuclear Science

Make plans now to attend the "Atomic Age: Discovery and Evolution of Nuclear Science" exhibit at the Linda Hall Library in Kansas City.  The atomic age began in small laboratories with a handful of scientists long before Trinity.  The exhibition will describe these early discoveries by pioneer physicists, as well as highlight scientists associated with the Manhattan Project, explore President Eisenhower's Atoms for Peace initiative, and examine the direct influence and impact of these events on modern peaceful applications of the nuclear science in energy and medicine.  The exhibit opens Wednesday, October 10, 2010 with a reception at 6:00 p.m. Learn more about the exhibit at http://atomic.lindahall.org/index.shtml. 

The exhibition includes an interactive kiosk application designed and developed by 305 Spin. The radioactive dose quiz calculates the amount of radiation you are exposed to annually based on your answers and where you live.
