Germany WAS ON THE VERGE OF COMPLETE DEFEAT. When her scientists were captured, they were persuaded to carry on their work in the safety of American atomic research centers.
Germany never had an atomic bomb.
They has fled the fascist government in Germany
Yes, both.
Atomic Bomb
Fear that Nazi Germany might develop it first and use it to take over the world.
The US did not drop atomic bombs on Germany although the original purpose of the Manhattan Project was to develop a bomb before the Germans did. However, as the war went on Germany had to redirect recourses to other areas so they never succeeded in developing an atomic bomb. Once Germany surrendered, and the atomic bomb was successfully tested in New Mexico, the possibility existed of using it against Japan. And that is what happened
In 1942 Einstein contacted Franklin Delano Roosevelt in a letter telling him about the atomic bomb making that was going on in Germany. The concept of building atomic bombs was sparked by that letter. The Manhattan Project started soon after Roosevelt received the letter.
yes we did
The atomic bomb is too expensive to develop for a city to have them. They are weapons held only by industrialized countries.
Germany
Manhattan Project
No, Albert Einstein did not develop the atomic bomb, which was developed by a team of researchers led by J. Robert Oppenheimer. Einstein's theoretical work does provide the basis upon which the bomb was developed.
