ATOMS AT WORK: THE LATIN AMERICAN EXHIBIT

This film describes the US Atomic Energy Commission's exhibit on the peaceful uses of atomic energy during the Latin American tour, including Rio de Janeiro and Buenos Aires. After the opening-day ceremonies, there is a flashback showing the construction of the exhibit structure and facilities (e.g., the concrete foundation, the shield for the nuclear-research training reactor, the erection of steel arches, and the nature and inflation of the air-supported double-domed structure made of vinyl-coated nylon). The film shows the various exhibits and facilities, including the three-screen theater, the nuclear-power exhibit, the industrial-applications exhibit, the agricultural exhibit, the medical exhibit, the health and safety exhibit, the gamma tank, and the nuclear-research test reactor.
