In the 1950s, the United States Atomic Energy Commission started testing tissue samples from recently deceased children and babies in order to test radioactive strontium-90, the most severe threat to humans in the event of a nuclear fallout.
Throughout “Project Sunshine,” they collected more than 1,500 samples throughout Europe and Australia—often without the parents’ knowledge or consent—to test the horrible effects on young human tissue.
