Albert Einstein's only connection to nuclear weapons was to sign a letter written by Leo Szilard in 1939 that was addressed to president Franklin Roosevelt warning that Nazi Germany might be working on an atomic bomb and that the US should begin research into the subject. Einstein was a pacifist and refused to do any war or weapons related work, he spent all of World War 2 working on the equations of his Grand Unified Theory (which he never worked out by the time he died).
Albert Einstein had no idea if any action had been taken on the letter he had signed until he saw the August 6, 1945 newspaper headlines reporting the atomic bombing of Hiroshima.

Did Albert Einstein help design the atom bomb?
No.
When did Enrico Fermi help Einstein with the Atomic Bomb?
1926.
When did Albert Einstein help invent the a bomb?
Albert Einstein did not in fact create the atomic bomb, he discovered the formula E=mc2. The bomb itself was created during World War Two by the scientists of the Manhattan Project. Einstein did sign a letter to (then) President Roosevelt urging that this work begin, but the effort most likely would have begun even without Einstein's initial endoresement. Einstein was aghast that his work was used for what he considered a terrible evil.
What did Albert Einstein do before he died?
He helped people and also he developed nuclear energy which help people

Name some of albert Einstein's accomplishments?
help made the atomic bomb
Did Einstein help launch the first nuclear bomb?
No, Einstein never did any work on any kind of nuclear explosive; he was a pacifist and therefore refused to do war-related work. Also, he could not have qualified for the security clearances needed to do such work, as the FBI was very suspicious of many people and organizations with which he associated. The only participation Einstein had in the nuclear bomb project was to approve and sign a letter to FDR that Leo Szilard had previously written in Einstein's name warning that the Nazis were almost certainly already working on atomic bombs, so the U.S. had better begin work on them too in order to defend against such a possibility.
Who was the famous scientist that help make the atomic bomb?
I believe you are referring to Albert Einstein.
How did the manhatton project use the atomic bomb?
The Manhattan Project used the cyclotron, to help create the atomic bomb. The Manhatton Project took advantage of the nuclear invention, to get revenge upon the japanise for the bombing upon pearl harbor.
Did the atomic bomb and nuclear use to help us or for harm?
atomic bomb caused harm while the nuclear energy can be both harmful(radiation) and harmless(for electricity).
Who was a help in the atomic bomb project?
well, the atomic bomb research was done by Robert oppenheimer. the original creation or idea was from albert Einstein
