The first atomic bomb was created in the USA during the Second World War (Manhattan Project).
A pure fission atomic bomb with a yield of a megaton or more is theoretically impossible. The problem is that the chain reaction would happen spontaneously before the device could even be completely built and the bomb parts would melt, resulting in a fizzle and killing everyone building it.The first fusion atomic bomb (commonly called a hydrogen bomb) was tested in 1952 as Ivy Mike and had a 10 megaton yield. The highest yield pure fission atomic bomb ever built was also tested in 1952 as Ivy King and had a 500 kilotons yield.
The atomic bomb test site was named the Trinity Test Site. It was located in New Mexico, USA, and was where the first atomic bomb was successfully detonated on July 16, 1945.
J. Robert Oppenheimer, the first director of the Los Alamos Laboratory and a key figure in the Manhattan Project, which developed the atomic bomb, was American.
J. Robert Oppenheimer was the first American physicist in charge of the development of the first atomic bomb during the Manhattan Project in World War II.
The first atomic bomb, "Little Boy," weighed about 9,700 pounds (4,400 kg).

Fear that Nazi Germany might do it first.
the atomic bomb was not discovered, it was invented then built.
FDR never saw a working atomic bomb, he died before the first ones were built.
It was built in New Mexico.
in 1943
1943
The atomic bomb was not invented by a project, it was invented by Leo Szilard in 1933.However the Manhattan Project built the first ones in 1945.
when Soviets explode first atomic bomb

The parts for the first atomic bomb were built in 1944 as a result of research that had been going on for over 10 years. It was assembled on the flight to Hiroshima.
