A Closer Look

Nuking the Moon And other Intelligence Schemes Left On The Drawing Board


Listen Later

This is a Closer Look at Vince Houghton, intelligence historian, US Army Vet and curator of the International Spy Museum in Washington, DC. Houghton Joins former SEC chairman Arthur Levitt to talk about his new book, “Nuking the Moon: And Other Intelligence Schemes And Military Plots Left On The Drawing Board.” The book looks at covert projects and technology from WWII to through the Cold War that were seriously considered, but didn’t make the grade. Some were ultimately deemed too risky, expensive, dangerous, ahead of their time—or even certifiably insane.
