A beautifully illustrated, informative book about a little-known piece of history: two mobile laboratories that brought together scientists from around the world in the aftermath of World War II. For curious readers ages 9 years and up.

Journey into history with science and adventure! Step back to the 1950s, where world-changing innovations and the pursuit of peace take center stage. Learn how the United States once donated two blue laboratory buses to carry nuclear science across the globe with the goal of bringing hope and progress to the world after the devastation of World War II. Despite many difficulties, a team of dedicated scientists used these labs to help shape history, bridging gaps between nations in the hope of building a brighter future.

Based on historical and scientific facts, it was written by Maria Rentetzi, professor in science, technology and gender studies at the Friedrich-Alexander University of Erlangen-Nurember in Germany.
