it didn't
the atomic bomb was not discovered, it was invented then built.

Leo Szilard invented the atomic bomb in 1933 while studying possible ways to more effectively perform atomic transmutation experiments with neutrons, that he was working on at the tim in London.
Robert Oppenheimer's big discovery was the atomic bomb
Albert Einstein
No. Nor did anyone else. Atomic bombs are an invention not a discovery.
One was the discovery of Plutonium.
The invention of the atomic bomb was partially based on the studies of Albert Einstein and his theory of relativity that led to the understanding of mass-energy equivalence, as well as the work of physicist Enrico Fermi on nuclear reactions and Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann's discovery of nuclear fission. These contributions played a role in the development of the scientific principles behind the atomic bomb.
E=mc2. Because the atomic bomb contains an abundant amount of energy, and E stands for energy, used for the explosion. Which is because the atomic bomb contains a small piece of uranium which is triggered when the bomb lands. by:Kevin Sjogreen
No, not directly. It stated that lots of energy is in matter, but not how to get to it. This was a discovery, not an invention.The 1933 invention of the neutron chain reaction, atomic bomb, and atomic reactor by Leo Szilard said how to get to some of that energy.
J. Robert Oppenheimer was a physicist who is often credited as the "father of the atomic bomb." He led the Manhattan Project during World War II that developed the first atomic bomb. His contributions to the atomic theory revolutionized modern warfare and had a profound impact on the course of history.
His theory about atomic fusion helped in the development of the bomb. He also convinced the president to develop the research in it. In the last 25 years of his life he questioned himself concerning the use and development of the bomb and was unhappy that he had helped build the theory and foundation of atomic theory.
