Sunday at 3pm: Safeguarding the New Atomic Age

Mk-5-Nuclear-Bomb (photo credit: Marshall Astor) In January 2000, a German engineer living in South Africa met with a friend and business partner to hatch a deal. Gerald Wisser, a 61-year-old broker, visited his friend's pipe factory outside Johannesburg to see if his friend wanted to make a bid on a machine to assist with the enrichment of uranium. It was just one part of a much larger operation. Its goal: to provide the fuel enabling Libya to produce its own nuclear bombs. In this one hour special from American Radio Works, find out more about how America is attempting to safeguard the world from "nuclear terrorism" this Sunday at 3pm on KJZZ.
