Secrets, Lies, and Atomic Spies
Go to the companion Web site
NOVA reveals startling new evidence that Soviet spies penetrated America's
deepest secrets, including the Manhattan Project, in the 1940's. By
cracking the code of Soviet diplomatic cables, the FBI was able to hunt
down "atom spies" such as Klaus Fuchs and Julius Rosenberg. But the true
"master spy," a physicist named Ted Hall, got away -- and his gripping
story is presented for the first time by NOVA.
