🧠 Lecture: "Untold Stories of Nuclear Weapons: Accidents & Near-Misses"
🎤 Speaker: Professor Anshul Kogar
Join us for a fascinating evening as Professor Anshul Kogar uncovers the hidden history of nuclear weapons right here at home. While we often imagine nuclear arms only in the context of war and global conflict, their mere storage on U.S. soil has created grave risks most people never hear about.
Professor Kogar will walk us through some of the most alarming nuclear accidents and near-misses in the mainland United States, revealing how close we have come to catastrophe. He will explore what these incidents teach us about safety, secrecy, and the true costs of maintaining nuclear stockpiles—and whether these weapons should be stored at all.
Anshul Kogar is an experimental physicist whose research focuses on the interaction of light with matter, bringing a rigorous, scientific lens to questions of technology, risk, and responsibility.
