THIS WAS THE ATOM BOMB USED AGAINST HIROSHIMA AND NAGASAKI!
This was the leader of World War 2
During the world war 2 the united state used an unprecedented $2 billion to feed an ultra-secret research and development program,the outcome of which would outcome the relationship of nations forever.Known as Manhattan project,it was the search by the united states and her closest allies to create an atomic bomb:a single devise capable of mass destruction,the treat of which alone could be powerful enough to end the war.
The motivation was simple.Scientists escaping the Nazi regime had revealed that research in Germany had confirmed the theoretical viability of atomic bombs.In 1939,in support of their fears that the Nazis might now be developing such a weapon,Albert Einstein and others wrote to president Franklin .D. Roosevelt(FDR) warning of the need for atomic research.By 1941 FDR had authorised formal,coordinated scientific research into a device.Among those whose efforts would ultimately unleash the power of atom was Robert oppenheimer(1904-1967),who was appointed the projects scientific director in 1942.Under his direction the famous laboratory at los Alamos would be constructed and the scientific team assembled.
An atomic bombs initiates a nuclear chain reaction,thereby releasing truly vast amount of energy.An initial problem was the production of enough "enriched" uranium to sustain such a reaction.Instrumental in the solution was Italian physicist Enrico Fermi.In a former squash court under Chicago university,he and other scientist created the first ever controlled,self-sustaining nuclear chain reaction.The project ultimately created the first,man-made nuclear explosion,which Oppenheimer called 'Trinity' at Alamogordo,New Mexico,on July 16,1945.
The explosion at Trinity
That's all guys
