  • Summary

  • During the Second World War, the United States established the highly secret Manhattan Project to develop an atomic bomb based on nuclear fission. While the Manhattan Project was ultimately successful, some in the program were thinking bigger. They felt that the explosion from an uncontrolled fission reaction could be used to create an even larger explosion using nuclear fusion. One man, in particular, felt that such a device was necessary and spearheaded the efforts after the war to develop a fusion-based hydrogen bomb.
