answer Identify the scientist who became the director of the Manhattan Project, which created the atomic bomb
By the summer of 1945, Oppenheimer was ready to test the first bomb. On July 16, 1945, at Trinity Site near Alamogordo, New Mexico, scientists of the Manhattan Project readied themselves to watch the detonation of the world's first atomic bomb.The device was affixed to a 100-foot tower and discharged just before dawn.y the summer of 1945, Oppenheimer was ready to test the first bomb.

The device was affixed to a 100-foot tower and discharged just before dawn. Albert Einstein was the start of the atomic bomb and he immigrated from Germany because he was Jewish. It was Robert Oppenheimer that ran the project. The Potsdam conference was a meeting of the Big Three Allies: Stalin, Roosevelt (maybe it was Truman by then) and Winston Churchill.he Cold War began when Germans were angered that their leaders were on trial for war crimes. The Nuremberg Trials lasted nearly four years, and many key German leaders were found guilty and sentenced to death. --------------------------------------... The Manhattan Project was the project to develop the first nuclear  weapon (atomic bomb) during World War II by the United States, the  United Kingdom, and Canada.Born out of a small research program in 1939, the Manhattan Project  eventually employed more than 130,000 people and cost nearly $2  billion USD ($23 billion in 2007 dollars based on CPI). It resulted  in the creation of multiple production and research sites that  operated in secret. The Manhattan Project was a research and development project that produced the first nuclear weapons during World War II.roves appreciated the early British atomic research and the British scientists' contributions to the Manhattan Project, but stated that the United States would have succeeded without them. He also said that Churchill was the best friend the atomic bomb project had [as] he kept Roosevelt's interest up ... During World War II, American physicists and engineers began a race against Nazi Germany to create the first atomic bomb. This secret four-year endeavor (1942-1945) was code-named “the Manhattan Project,” named for one of the initial sites of research, Columbia University in Manhattan, New York.n 1942, Manhattan Project scientific director J. Robert Oppenheimer suggested the remote area of Los Alamos in New Mexico. General Groves approved the site and construction began at the end of 1942. Oppenheimer became the director of the Los Alamos Laboratory (known as “Project Y”). From 1942 to 1946, the project was under the direction of Major General Leslie Groves of the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers; physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer was the director of the Los Alamos National Laboratory that designed the actual bombs.roves appreciated the early British atomic research and the British scientists' contributions to the Manhattan Project, but stated that the United States would have succeeded without them.

Overseen by Major General Leslie Groves and scientist Robert Oppenheimer, the Manhattan Project was the name given to the United States' efforts to build nuclear weapons during World War II.verseen by Major General Leslie Groves and scientist Robert Oppenheimer, the Manhattan Project was the name given to the United States' efforts to build nuclear weapons during World War II. Manhattan Project, the U.S. effort in World War II that developed the atomic bomb. The possibility of developing an atomic bomb became evident late in 1938 when scientists in Germany successfully split a uranium atom by bombarding it with neutrons.eginning in June 1942 during World War II, the United States' Manhattan Project brought together scientists and military experts to create the world's first atomic bomb. The Manhattan Project was the top secret military endeavor to  build, and detonate the first atomic bomb. It was based at Los  Alamos, New Mexico and headed by Dr. J. Robert … Oppenheimer.Born out of a small research program in 1939, the Manhattan Project  eventually employed more than 130,000 people and cost nearly $2  billion USD ($23 billion in 2007 dollars based on CPI). It resulted  in the creation of multiple production and research sites that  operated in secret. Roosevelt agreed and placed General Leslie Groves and physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer in charge of the Manhattan Project two years later. The name Manhattan Project was the code word for the development of the atomic bomb. On July 16, 1945, the first atomic bomb was tested at the Trinity Site in New Mexico.The weapon was later used against the Japanese to end World War II.eginning in June 1942 during World War II, the United States' Manhattan Project brought together scientists and military experts to create the world's first atomic bomb.
