This award-winning Maryland History Day documentary, by Lauren White, portrays the fate of the Lucky Dragon, a Japanese fishing vessel that was accidentally showered with radioactive ash from a 1954 U.S. hydrogen bomb test in the Marshall Islands. The incident and its effect on subsequent events led to a worldwide compromise that changed the course of the arms race in the midst of the Cold War. White conducted research at the Peace Resource Center at Wilmington College, Ohio, as well as at the National Archives, the Library of Congress and various television and radio archives. She corresponded with two historians and professors of East Asian history, a former Naval officer, and a State Department analyst and expert on East Asia.
