The Treaty was signed in Moscow on August 5, 1963, by U.S. Secretary Dean Rusk, Soviet Foreign Minister Andrei Gromyko, and British Foreign Secretary Lord Alec Douglas- Home-- one day short of the 18th anniversary of the dropping of an atomic bomb on Hiroshima.
The large American delegation included Adlai E. Stevenson, Senators J. W. Fulbright, Democrat of Arkansas; George D. Aiken, Republicans of Vermont; Leverett Saltonstall, Republican of Massachusetts; John J. Sparkman, Democrat of Alabama; Hubert H. Humphrey, Democrat of Minnesota, and John O. Pastore, Democrat of Rhode Island, and Ambassador to the Soviet Union.
Over the next two months, President Kennedy convinced a fearful public and a divided Senate to support the Treaty. The Senate approved the Limited Nuclear Test Ban on September 23, 1963, by an 80-19 margin. Kennedy signed the ratified Treaty on October 7, 1963.
