General information Atomic Age is a period of nuclear technology development starting with the launch of the first nuclear power reactor "Chicago Pile-1" in December 1942. Further progress of the nuclear industry took place during the next decades which makes up for an important part of modern technological era.
The brand new Vostok Europe Atomic Age line acknowledges these technologacal advances. The Chrono line is dedicated to Andrei Sakharov, a Soviet nuclear physicist, dissident, Nobel laureate, and activist for disarmament, peace and human rights. Being a chief-designer of the Soviet thermonuclear weapons, Sakharov later became an advocate of civil liberties and civil reforms in the Soviet Union, for which he faced state persecution. These efforts earned him the Nobel Peace Prize in 1975.
