Nuke the Moon: Project A119

Tell me your favorite episode for the 6th anniversary show!

At the height of the Cold War, the United States considered a plan so audacious that it sounds like science fiction: detonating a nuclear weapon on the Moon. 

Known as Project A119, it was born from fear, prestige, and the urgent need to answer the Soviet Union’s early lead in space. 

The plan was real, the scientists involved were some of the most noteworthy of the 20th century, and the implications were enormous. 

Learn more about Project A119 and the quest to nuke the Moon on this episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
