Yet hundreds of millions of people are alive because of him. The actions of Stanislav Petrov, a retired Soviet military officer, prevented the start of a worldwide nuclear war and the devastation of much of the Earth."--IMDb 520 $a With "Operation Able Archer" in the fall of 1983 Ronald Reagan convinced the Soviet Union that NATO was about to launch a nuclear first strike. On 26 September 1983, the nuclear early warning system of the Soviet Union twice reported the launch of USAF Minuteman intercontinental ballistic missiles from bases in the United States. These missile attack warnings were correctly identified as a false alarm by Stanislav Yevgrafovich Petrov, an officer of the Soviet Air Defence Forces. This decision is seen as having prevented a retaliatory nuclear attack based on erroneous data on the United States and its NATO allies, which would have probably resulted in nuclear war and the deaths of hundreds of millions of people. Investigation of the satellite warning system later confirmed that the system had malfunctioned. 511 0 $a Kevin Costner, Stanislav Petrov, Nataliya Vdovina, Sergey Shnyryov. 508 $a Music, Kristian Eidnes Andersen ; cinematography, Kim Hattesen. 600 10 $a Petrov, Stanislav, $d 1939- $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nb2016023926 650 0 $a Air forces $z Soviet Union $x Officers $y 21st century $v Biography. 650 0 $a Ballistic missile early warning system $z Soviet Union $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a First strike (Nuclear strategy) $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Nuclear crisis control $z Soviet Union $x History $y 20th century. 650 0 $a Nuclear warfare $z Soviet Union $x History $x History $y 20th century. 610 20 $a North Atlantic Treaty Organization $x History $y 20th century. 600 10 $a Reagan, Ronald. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n79059562 655 7 $a Biographies. $2 lcgft $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/genreForms/gf2014026049 700 1 $a Costner, Kevin, $e associated name. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/n85376866 700 1 $a Petrov, Stanislav, $d 1939- $e associated name. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nb2016023926 700 1 $a Vdovina, Nataliiï¸ a︡, $e actor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2005028131 700 1 $a Shnyrev, SergeiÌ, $d 1971- $e actor. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/no2016130099 700 1 $a Anthony, Peter, $e director. $0 http://id.loc.gov/authorities/names/nb2008005716 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231021021844.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F2AFB27A1DF111EDA8BEF4A423ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
