The development of the nuclear bomb was primarily spearheaded by the Manhattan Project during World War II, involving prominent scientists such as J. Robert Oppenheimer, Enrico Fermi, and Richard Feynman. The project included contributions from thousands of scientists, engineers, and military personnel across various facilities, including Los Alamos, Oak Ridge, and Hanford. Key figures like Leo Szilard and Niels Bohr also played significant roles in the theoretical foundations and advocacy for nuclear energy. The collaboration of these individuals and teams culminated in the successful detonation of the first atomic bomb in 1945.
