11 Dr. Gernot Zippe ( ) Invented the Zippe-Type centrifuge: The easiest way to make fuel for reactors and weapons. 11

12 Dr. Gernot Zippe Born and raised in Austria In 1945 he was kidnapped and held prisoner in the Soviet Union where he was ordered to develop a centrifuge program. Having done as he was asked, he was freed by the Soviets (1957)! 12

13 Dr. Gernot Zippe 1957, Dr. Zippe flew to the United States and set up shop at the University of Virginia. He managed to recreate the Russian centrifuge and returned to Europe in

14 Dr. Gernot Zippe In the 1960s, Dr. Zippe switched the rotor material from aluminum to maraging steel to allow for higher spin rates. Rotors were made longer, which increased the collection of U

15 Dr. Gernot Zippe In the 1970's, Urenco, a new European consortium for making nuclear fuel, adopted Zippe-type designs. Dr. A. Q. Khan worked as a consultant at a Urenco plant and stole the designs. 15

25 PROJECT DISCREET OCULUS Preparedness When has something happened? Prompt diagnostics research & development project by the Defense Threat Reduction Agency. Ground-based sensor suite collects prompt outputs of a limited nuclear event in an urban environment. Measured outputs include seismic, infrasound, overpressure, electromagnetic pulse, gamma radiation, and optical signatures. Sensor readings sent to the Air Force Technical Applications Center for analysis and reporting.
