Created in 1950, this U.S. Air Force sponsored film was created to allay the American public’s fears about nuclear radiation. Using animation to explain the various types of nuclear radiation and exposure, the film purports to give scientific insights into the effects of radiation exposure. In the light of more current science, the film seems woefully incomplete and misleading.
