For more than fifteen years, I have traveled internationally to sites that shaped the development, testing, and long-term legacy of nuclear technology. These journeys have taken me to locations central to the scientific breakthroughs, industrial efforts, and geopolitical decisions that defined the nuclear age. Along the way, I have carefully preserved artifacts that provide rare, tangible connections to some of the most consequential chapters of modern history. Many originate from facilities and environments that are now restricted, decommissioned, or irrevocably changed, making their survival—and availability—increasingly uncommon.

Each artifact in this collection represents more than an object; it is a physical witness to the ambitions, challenges, and responsibilities that accompanied humanity’s entry into the nuclear era. Whether connected to early experimental research, Cold War infrastructure, civilian nuclear power, or post-accident environments, these pieces reflect both technological achievement and the profound impact nuclear science has had on the world.

The purpose of nuclearhistory.shop is to place these historically significant artifacts in the hands of collectors, historians, educators, and enthusiasts who value authenticity, provenance, and context. Every item is presented with care, respect, and an emphasis on its historical narrative. I invite you to explore the collection, engage with the stories behind each artifact, and preserve a meaningful piece of nuclear history. If you have questions or would like additional background on any item, I am always happy to provide further information.
