VOYAGER LECTURE SERIES

Stories from the Atomic Age

With Matthew Malinowski, The Atomic Museum

Tuesday, April 29, 7:30pm

Social Hour begins at 6:30pm

The Lorraine Boccardo Theater

This year’s Voyager Lecture Series follows “The History of This Land,” from the deep time studied in geology, through modern concerns related to our changing environment.

April’s program is presented by the Atomic Museum, a national science, history and educational institution that tells the story of America’s nuclear weapons testing program at the Nevada Test Site. The Museum uses lessons of the past and present to better understand the extent and effect of nuclear testing on worldwide nuclear deterrence and geo-political history.

The Atomic Museum team will visit Kayenta to discuss the history, challenges and consequences of atomic testing at the Nevada Test Site, including the Downwinders living in Arizona, Nevada, and our area in Utah who were exposed to radiation from atmospheric nuclear testing.
