In the early hours of 3rd June 1980, something happened which would have frightened most people if they had known about it. A small electric circuit, no bigger than your thumbnail, went wrong, and for three minutes the world would have moved to wards the brink of disaster.
The circuit was part of American early-warning system in Colorado Springs, which suddenly announced that United States was being attacked by missiles.
In the three minutes that it took to verify that this was in fact a computer error, one American Air Force control aircraft took off from Hawaii, and crews of B52 nucler bombers and commanders of nuclear submarines were alerted, and missile controllers were ordered to have their launch keys ready.
It was one of three major false alarms that year.
For most people, a nuclear destruction is totally unthinkable-so they don’t think about it. But developments are taking place in the world that make nuclear war not only thinkable, but more likely than ever before.
First, there is an alarming spread of nuclear weapons. It is rarely publicized, but it is believed that more than thirty countries could possess nuclear weapons by 2000. there are already more than 50000 nuclear weapons in the world, and even if the Russians and Americans agree to limit their production of nuclear arms, than number is bound to increase.
Secondly, there is the risk of accident. Because of a mainor computer error, we could destroy ourselves by a small mistake.
Third, nuclear weapons are becoming more accurate. They will have becom so accurate in a few years time that will be able to pick out the enemy’s missile sites with deadly accuracy. So there is likely to be a temptation on both sides to “strike first” –to launch your own missiles from their hidden sites before they can be hit. And since there is or will be so little time to retaliate, this in turn leads to the development of what are called “launch on warning” systems. With such systms, the chances of an accidental disaster are dramatically increased.
Of course, these arguments simplify the situation. It would be possible that the nuclear war would happen if man wants the risk of his life.
