For most of us, including actor Fred MacMurray who presents the film, the noun atom and the adjective atomic are synonymous with devastation, period. Of course, there was Hiroshima and Nagasaki but atomic energy is also - at least according to Father James Keller, who produced the documentary - "a Gift from God". For atomic power can also (and should only) be beneficial for mankind. In 1952, it is already effective in various fields, such as industry, agriculture and medicine. Let the atom be a blessing instead of a curse.
