The first 'splitting of an atom' was by Ernest Rutherford, 1st Baron Rutherford of Nelson,At The University of Manchester,Manchester,England in 1917,This discovery proceeded into the development of a Nuclear weapon. The Manhattan Project,in Los Alamos,USA On the 16th July 1945 detonated the first atomic bomb.Those involved in the making of the bomb were:
Robert Oppenheimer, David Bohm, Leo Szilard, Eugene Wigner, Otto Frisch, Rudolf Peierls, Felix Bloch, Niels Bohr, Emilio Segre, James Franck, Enrico Fermi, Klaus Fuchs and Edward Teller.

Leo Szilard, the inventor of the atomic bomb (patent GB630726), did not build it himself. He wrote a letter that he had Albert Einstein sign and send to president FDR warning of the potential of atomic bombs and that the Nazis were probably working on them already. If the Nazis got atomic bombs first the Allied cause was lost. FDR authorized funds for a study, the study recommended a full program be begun under direction of the Army. This program became the Manhattan Project, which built the bomb. Leo Szilard was one of hundreds of scientists employed by the Manhattan Project during WW2.
the first atomic bomb was tested July 16 1945 in New Mexico
The element first used for fission in an atomic bomb is uranium.
No, Thomas Edison did not build the atomic bomb. The atomic bomb was developed during World War II by the Manhattan Project team led by scientists such as J. Robert Oppenheimer and Enrico Fermi. Edison was a prolific inventor known for his work in electricity and the light bulb.
