A Genius Built a Gun That Could Shoot Into Space — Then a Team of Assassins Silenced Him Forever

This is the declassified true story of a genius who was silenced forever. Dr. Gerald Bull, a brilliant Canadian artillery engineer, had a dream: to build a supergun capable of launching satellites into space. When Western governments abandoned his project, he found a new patron willing to fund his ambition: Saddam Hussein.

Thus began Project Babylon, the secret plan to build a colossal 156-meter cannon for Iraq, a weapon that could threaten the entire Middle East. But as Bull got closer to completing his monstrous creation, he became a target. Intelligence agencies, including the Mossad, began to track his every move.

Join Spy Tales as we uncover the story of this forbidden technology, the international arms race to stop it, and the mysterious assassination of Dr. Bull, who was silenced by 5 bullets outside his Brussels apartment. It is a tale of genius, ambition, and the deadly consequences of building weapons for a dictator.
