Of course, they were well aware of the effects of radiation. However the immediate acute effects (e.g. blast, fire, radiation poisoning) were felt to be of greater magnitude and significance than any possible long term chronic effects.
There were none left. Once the two bombs were dropped on Japan, there were none left in reserve. It would have taken a long time to build and create new ones.
People were optimistic at the start of the Atomic age. They thought all power generators would be atomic from then on.

As both atomic bombs and supernovas vary in yield, this question has no single answer.
My opinion is, Truman should have used the atomic bomb. If he hadn't the war would have continued, and more would have died. Also I think that at one point the Axis would have dropped a atomic bomb on an allied city, possibly killing more then at Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
Radioactive waste would cause unborn babies to die/ have mutations.
Scientists had made observations that did not fit exactly with Dalton's theory. Scientists changed the atomic theory to include this new knowledge. While the modern atomic theory is based on Dalton's theory, it is also very different.
A Nuclear Physicist or Researcher or Technician would be scientists who know that.
Since glass was invented, the scientists were able to create the microscope. If this was never invented, the scientists would never have been able to discover cells.

Currently, scientists do not have the technology or capability to create another planet. Creating a whole new planet would involve vast resources, advanced technology, and knowledge beyond our current capabilities. While scientists can study planets, they cannot create one from scratch.
They create genetic variations.
The atomic theory was supported by Mendeleev when scientists discovered that elements displayed a periodic trend in their properties when arranged by increasing atomic weight. Mendeleev used this information to create the periodic table, organizing elements by their atomic weights and predicting the properties of missing elements.
There were literally thousands of scientists who participated; if you had to single one out, it would probably be scientific director Robert Oppenheimer.
Without mutations, there would be no genetic variation, making evolution impossible. Mutations are essential for introducing new traits and diversity in populations, which allows for natural selection to act upon. Therefore, without mutations, species would not be able to adapt to changing environments and would likely become extinct.
Some scientists belived that making huge atomic bombs would actually put an end to war, making the ultimate weapon that people were to afraid to use. Other scientists have worked for their country to produce large bombs, so that their country will remain a dominant world power.
Approximately a trillion years. And most people don't live that long.
