The splitting of the uranium atom in Germany in December 1938 plus continued German aggression led some physicists to fear that Germany might be working on an atomic bomb. Among those concerned were physicists Leo Szilard and Eugene Wigner. But Szilard and Wigner had no influence with those in power.

Einstein's greatest role in the invention of the atomic bomb was signing a letter to President Franklin Roosevelt urging that the bomb be built.

On 6th August 1945, a B29 bomber dropped an atom bomb on Hiroshima. It has been estimated that over the years around 200,000 people have died as a result of this bomb being dropped. Japan did not surrender immediately and a second bomb was dropped on Nagasaki three days later.

Germany did not produce any atomic bombs. American scientists, not German, created the first atomic pile. American scientists, not German, said after the first successful test, We have this day crossed a great milestone in human progress (Ford 213).

However, history is clear on this point. Germany did not produce any atomic bombs. American scientists, not German, created the first atomic pile. American scientists, not German, said after the first successful test, We have this day crossed a great milestone in human progress (Ford 213).

1) Theory 1, Economic: The Americans spent something like $2 billion (in money of the time) to build the atomic bomb. Germany simply did not have that level of resources, meaning that her initial lead in atomic understanding was moot.

The Nazi Germany Nuclear Energy project began in April 1939, just after the discovery of Nuclear Fission in Jan. 1939. The first effort ended after several months, but the second effort was controlled by the German Army Ordnance office on the day after WWII began.

For years historians had argued that the Nazi effort to build an atomic bomb during World War II was far behind that of the Allies. Then in a controversial 2005 book, historian Rainer Karlsch made a startling claim. On March 4, 1945, Clare Werner was standing on a hillside in Thuringian, Germany.
