LA's NUCLEAR SECRET   Years of mishandling dangerous radioactive materials and chemicals has also left a toxic legacy for generations of people living near the Santa Susana Field Laboratory.

 

Tucked away in the hills above the San Fernando and Simi valleys was a 2,800-acre laboratory with a mission that was a mystery to the thousands of people who lived in its shadow. In a place called Area IV of the Santa Susana Field Laboratory (SSFL), there was a secret collaboration between the U.S. government and private companies to test the limits of nuclear power.

 

For decades, scientists and staff at SSFL experimented with new types of nuclear reactors, advanced rocket systems and futuristic weapons. While this research helped launch Americans into space and provided a better understanding of nuclear power, years of mishandling dangerous radioactive materials and chemicals has also left a toxic legacy for generations of people living near the site. The scientists are now gone, but acres and acres of radioactive and chemical contamination remains right above the neighborhoods of thousands.

 

The NBC4 I-Team spent a year investigating the story of the Santa Susana Field Lab. Our work involved interviews with whistleblowers, an intense review of more than 15,000 pages of government, academic and corporate documents, and interviews with dozens of community members, experts and public officials. We now know these families have been living in the shadow of one of the nation’s worst nuclear disasters in history and for the first time, NBC4 is revealing LA’s Nuclear Secret.

EXCLUSIVE - Hitler's iconic 'finishing school of evil' for the Third Reich's brightest brains and a shrine to German neo-Nazis is to become.... a hostel for asylum seekers 
  • The Vogelsang complex was Hitler's university where the Third Reich would school the brightest future Nazi leaders 
  • Called 'Junkers', students studied degree courses on 'Ayran' supremacy 
  • The iconic castle on the Belgium border still attracts swathes of neo-Nazis  
  • But, in an extraordinary decision, it's becoming home for 1,000 refugees
