“Mass is power, says Dr. Albert Einstein. The arguments he presents are a little too hard for the public to follow; but here are some of his conclusions about the power that lies in the atom, if and when we can ever make use of it. But Einstein also says he feels sure that it will not be possible to convert our familiar matter into energy in the manners shown. This will relieve coal miners and oil well operators.”

On the banks of the Pacific Northwest’s greatest river lies the Hanford nuclear reservation, an industrial site that appears to be at odds with the surrounding vineyards and desert. The 586-square mile compound on the Columbia in eastern Washington is known both for its origins as part of the Manhattan Project, which made the first atomic bombs, and for the monumental effort now under way to clean up forty-five years’ of waste from manufacturing plutonium for the U.S. nuclear weapons complex. Atomic Frontier Days tells a complex story of production, community-building, politics, and environmental sensibilities

These complex beauties are from a collection of Nuclear slide rules and dials gathered together by ORAU (Oak Ridge Associated Universities). They’ve got dials to calculate radiation dosage, Nuclear bomb effects, Nuclear weapon effects, x-ray exposure, decay rates, treatment times and Radium exposure. A much more useful collection than mine, which mainly consists of vintage promotional pieces!
See the full collection of Nuclear slide rules here and see some of mine here.
