What's New
New films document radiation
contamination in Russia
Four films that explore aspects of radiation contamination in Russia are available to U.S. government agencies through AFRRI. The titles—Novaya Zemlya; Totsk: Training for a Nuclear Bomb Drop; Sightseeing in Nuclear Moscow; and Radiation Situation in the Chelyabinsk Region—were produced by The Day Before Company under contract with the Defense Special Weapons Agency.

A limited number of copies, each with English voice-over and in National Television Standards Corporation (NTSC) format, are available for scientific purposes only and may not be sold or rented. Requests should be submitted on organization letterhead and should state awareness of the above stipulations and agreement to observe them. After the limited supply is exhausted, requesters will be asked to provide an hour-long blank VHS or super VHS tape. Write to Publications Branch, Armed Forces Radiobiology Research Institute, 8901 Wisconsin Avenue, Bethesda, MD 20889-5603. For information, call (301) 295-2017.

AFRRI encourages international collaborations and technology transfer in cooperation with scientific publishers through these and other information products.
