In 1983, during the Cold War, Soviet officer Stanislav Petrov prevented a potential nuclear war by trusting his judgment over automated systems when they falsely detected five incoming American nuclear missiles; he correctly identified that the system had mistaken sunlight reflecting off clouds for missiles, and his calm decision to report the system as faulty rather than launch a counterattack may have saved millions of lives.
