Cynthia Lazaroff tells the tale of her 40 minutes of terror during the Hawaii nuclear missile false alarm in 2018. Then Bill Perry talks about the infinitely more dangerous nuclear false alarm he experienced while in the Pentagon in 1979, and historian Taylor Downing tells the story of an equally dangerous one in the Soviet Union in 1983. Learn why we are still at risk for such false alarms that could potentially trigger World War III by mistake, and what we might do to lower the danger.
