SUMMARY:Atomic Washington: Our Nuclear Past\, Present\, and Future
DESCRIPTION:The Historic Trust and Humanities Washington partner to present a discussion with Steve Olson as he reveals the many influences of nuclear materials on Washington State\, and the many ways in which our state has been a pioneer in the Atomic Age. The program is offered at no charge; however\, due to limited seating\, registration is required. \nRegister HERE \nEvent Location: Red Cross Building\, 605 Barnes Street\, Vancouver\, WA 98660 \nAt the center of every nuclear weapon in the United States is a small pit of radioactive material manufactured at a top-secret facility in Eastern Washington\, a facility which\ntoday remains the most radiologically contaminated site in the Western hemisphere. \nBut Washington State’s role in the nuclear era ranges far beyond construction\, operation\, and ongoing cleanup of the Hanford nuclear reservation. Today\, Washington has two operating\nnuclear reactors\, one of which provides us with ten percent of our electricity. Radioactive substances are used in our state to cure diseases\, build airplanes\, detect pollutants\, and power smoke detectors. Further\, Naval Base Kitsap has the largest stockpile of nuclear weapons deployed anywhere in the country. \nDrawing from history\, science\, and popular culture\, author Steve Olson reveals the many influences of nuclear materials in Washington State\, and the many ways in which our state has been a pioneer in the atomic age. \nSteve Olson (he/him) is a writer who most recently authored The Apocalypse Factory: Plutonium and the Making of the Atomic Age. His books have been nominated in several local and national book awards. Since 1979\, he has been a consultant writer for the National Academy of Sciences\, the President’s Council of Advisors on Science and Technology\, and other national scientific organizations. Raised in Eastern Washington\, Olson now lives in Seattle.
