Records of Irwin Goodwin, 1983-1993.

Correspondence, reports, articles and clippings, press releases relating to the Superconducting Super Collider (SSC), the Continuous Electron Beam Accelerator Facility (CEBAF), and the Reagan administration's Strategic Defense Initiative (SDI) or "Star Wars." Of significant interest is an extensive collection of articles about the SSC clipped from various newspapers, magazines, newsletters, and journals that followed the story; and reports, statements, and notes from various House and Senate Science committees and hearings. One of the strengths of the collection is that this one reporter covered the SSC story from beginning to end, thereby making his files a consistent filter of the volumes of printed information that came across his desk. It is a valuable resource for those studying the politics of these projects.
