In June 1979, Carter and Brezhnev met in Vienna and signed the SALT-II agreement. The treaty basically established numerical equality between the two nations in terms of nuclear weapons delivery systems. It also limited the number of MIRV missiles (missiles with multiple, independent nuclear warheads).
Cape Cod is a geographic cape extending into the Atlantic Ocean from the southeastern corner of mainland Massachusetts, in the northeastern United States. Its historic, maritime character and ample beaches attract heavy tourism during the summer months.
Cape Cod is a 65-mile (105-km) long peninsula of Massachusetts that is a popular East Coast summer vacation area. Itâs easy to find on maps because of the distinctive hook at its far end. It was originally named Pallavisino by the first European to spot it, the Italian explorer Giovanni da Verrazano, in 1524. In 1602, the English explorer Bartholomew Gosnold stumbled on it while searching for a shortcut to Asia. He renamed it Cape Cod because of the abundance of huge cod fish in its waters. Cod became extremely important to the New England economy for several hundred years.
