Norman Rasmussen's (1975) analysis of the safety of nuclear power plants, written before any nuclear accidents had occurred, correctly predicted several details of the Three Mile Island incident that previous experts had not (McGrayne 2011, 180).

There had definitely been nuclear accidents before 1975 - just not major civilian power plant nuclear accidents.
