About this listen
In 1983, the world began connecting in ways few people could fully imagine. This episode explores the shift to the TCP/IP protocol, a crucial step in the development of the Internet, while Cold War tensions intensified with the downing of Korean Air Flight 007 and the Able Archer 83 military exercise. It also covers scientific advances related to AIDS, the Beirut attacks, the U.S. invasion of Grenada, Sally Ride’s journey into space, the release of Return of the Jedi, and the arrival of Mario Bros. A year when the technological future moved forward while the present remained shaped by fear.
