'Countdown to Zero' at Winona State

Winona State University's Global Zero Chapter will show the documentary Countdown to Zero at 6 p.m. Thursday, March 22, in the Science Laboratory Center auditorium.

Countdown to Zero traces the history of the atomic bomb from its origins to the present state of affairs: nine nations possessing nuclear weapons capabilities with others racing to join them, with the world held in a delicate balance that could be shattered by an act of terrorism, failed diplomacy, or a simple accident. The film features an array of international statesmen, including Jimmy Carter, Mikhail Gorbachev, Pervez Musharraf and Tony Blair.



Tickets can be reserved on the Global Zero Ticket Information website.

This event is free for students and $3 for community members. Free pizza and soda will be served around 5:30 p.m. with presentation of ticket. Ice cream will be served after the movie.
