The one Priest I knew was Father O'Donnel. I'm not sure of the spelling, but he was my Chemistry prof at St. Francis college in Biddeford Me in 1973-74. I beleive the college is called - the College of New Englan now. I see another priest T.L. VAn Winkle who died in 1988
The top secret program to build an atomic bomb was called the Manhattan Project. It was so secret the top Generals and Admirals did not know about it. The people who worked on the project often did not know what they were working on. All the workers lived in places that were developed from the ground up and they could not talk about what they were doing. Even Vice President Truman did not know about it until after President Roosevelt died.
the US army headed a secret team of scientists called the Manhattan project - they did the science, developed the ideas and worked with engineers to make the first atomic bomb on 1944-1945.
Robert Oppenheimer and his team of scientists.
Crossing Southampton Road in London while taking a walk on September 12, 1933.
Robert R. Wilson, Lise Meitner, and Otto R. Frisch America's Manhattan project was headed by J Robert Openheimer. His principle assistants were Hans Bethe, Victor Weisskopf, Earnest Lawrance and Enrico Fermi.
no
worked on the development of the atomic bomb
A physicist who worked on the Manhattan Project (the first nuclear bomb).
Thousands of people that worked on the Manhattan Project. They were in several states, and from several nations.
Albert Einstein, Enrico Fermi, Edward Teller, and J. Robert Oppenheimer
Albert Einstein worked with a large number of scientists including Robert Oppenheimer and Edward Teller. He also worked with John Manley on the Manhattan Project.

Element 106 is named seaborgium. Seaborg was instrumental in the discovery of plutonium and worked on the Manhattan Project.
He worked for an agency that was operated by the Catholic Church in Chicago, called the "Developing Communities" Project. He also worked for an organization that was involved with voting rights-- Project Vote.
There weren't 6 African scientists on the Manhattan project. They were all European or American. It was rare indeed for a black man to be allowed an education in those days. It is doubtful that any got so far as to achieve a PhD in physics or chemistry. It is certain that none were part of project Manhattan. ------------- The above comment is not true - African-American scientist J. Ernest Wilkins got a PhD in 1942 and from 1944 worked on the Manhattan Project in the University of Chicago's Met Lab.
No. The men involved with the Manhattan project were scientists and worked many years on the development of the bomb. Einstein was one of the men.
Not really. A very large team called the Manhattan Project, built the first atomic bombs. Oppenheimer was the civilian head of the team. General Leslie Groves was the military head of the project. Several hundred scientists and technicians worked on the project. The original idea of the bomb came from Leo Szliard (sp).
