Command and Control examines the long-hidden story of a deadly accident at a Titan II missile complex in Damascus, Arkansas in 1980. The documentary features minute-by-minute accounts of Air Force personnel, weapon designers, and first responders, revealing the unlikely chain of events that caused the accident and the feverish efforts to prevent the explosion of a ballistic missile carrying the most powerful nuclear warhead ever built by the United States – a warhead 600 times more powerful than the bomb that destroyed Hiroshima.
