THE MANHATTAN PROJECT: UNDERSTAND THE DEVELOPMENT OF THE ATOMIC BOMB DURING WORLD WAR 11

The Manhattan Project was a top-secret U.S. research initiative during World War II that led to the development of the atomic bomb. Spearheaded by scientists like J. Robert Oppenheimer and supported by the U.S. government, the project involved thousands of workers and massive resources. The first successful test codenamed Trinity, took place in July 1945. The bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945 brought an end to the war but also ushered in the nuclear age. The Manhattan Project's legacy is complex, raising ethical questions about the use of nuclear weapons and their impact on global politics. It remains one of the most significant scientific and military endeavors in history.
