Good Morning!!!! 1.NVC 2.HOT ROC: Korean War 3.Nuclear Weapons During the Cold War Essential Question: What threat did nuclear weapons pose during the Cold War?

HOT ROC: Korean War Which textbook do you find the most trustworthy? Why?

Why not a “Hot” War? Brinkmanship: willingness to go to the brink of war without going over the edge – “ready to go to war to keep the peace” Result of an nuclear arms race – Competition to produce the most and the best nukes

Threat of Global Destruction Deterrence: strategy to create a nuclear arsenal so deadly your enemy will not dare to attack you – Mutually Assured Destruction (MAD): neither side willing to actually fight – Hydrogen Bomb (H- Bomb): a new more powerful type of nuke

Fission vs. Fusion Atom Bomb (Fission) Hydrogen Bomb (Fusion)

Nuclear Detonations Nuclear tests common during the Cold War – Bikini Atoll – Nevada Test Site nuclear weapons detonated between 1945-today – m/watch?v=_W_lLhBt8 Vg m/watch?v=_W_lLhBt8 Vg
