The history of the Doomsday Clock

It’s referenced in countless novels (Stephen King, Piers Anthony), comic books (Watchmen, Stormwatch), movies (Dr Strangelove, The Simpsons Movie, Justice League), and TV shows (Doctor Who, Madame Secretary). Even the shorthand, the way we announce the time on the Doomsday Clock “It is Two Minutes to Midnight” (or whatever the current time might be) has been adopted into the global vernacular.

Throughout the Doomsday Clock’s 75 years, the Bulletin has worked to preserve its integrity and its scientific mission to educate and inform the public. This is why, in part, we wanted to explore this powerful symbol and how it has impacted culture, politics, and global policy—and how it’s helped shape discussions and strategies around nuclear risk, climate change, and disruptive technologies. It’s a symbol of danger, of hope, of caution, and of our responsibility to one another.
