AGENDA Notes—Manhattan Project In your notebook or on looseleaf. Videos for Atomic Bomb

THE MANHATTAN PROJECT Scientists discovered a way to split an atom, and make a bomb that can destroy whole cities and change the way a war is fought. Albert Einstein was concerned that Germany would be the first to make this type of bomb, and appealed to President Roosevelt. The Manhattan Project was created to develop the atomic bomb for the United States (ironically, many of the scientists had fled Germany)

MANHATTAN PROJECT Triumph & Tragedy

THE FIRST ATOMIC BOMB July the first successful exploding of an atomic bomb happened in a New Mexico dessert Scientists figured the temperature at the center of the explosion was 3 times higher than the temperature of the sun. President Harry Truman wrote: “We have discovered the most terrible bomb in the history of the world.” Germany had already surrendered to end their involvement in WWII, but Japan refused to surrender. President Truman decided to use the bomb instead of risking up to 1 million allied soldiers with a ground invasion of Japan.

DROPPING THE BOMB Some personal accounts

IT TOOK TWO August 6, 1945 the first bomb was dropped on Hiroshima destroying the city and killing 135,000 people. Japan still refused to surrender. August 9, 1945 a second more powerful bomb was dropped on Nagasaki killing 70,000 people. Many of the people killed were women, children, and the elderly. August 15, 1945 Japan surrendered ending World War II in the Pacific
