∙ 12y agoAs warned by Albert Einstein in a letter to President Roosevelt, America needed to pump up its efforts to develop nuclear technology against the tough competition provided by Germany. Einstein had warned Roosevelt of nuclear energy's potential to create a powerful new bomb, and that potential was promptly harnessed, creating 2 atomic bombs and wiping out both Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Therefore, I suppose you could say that the Manhattan project began for the purpose of ending WWII.

∙ 13y agoAlbert Einstein was a German, Jewish scientist escaping Europe during WWII. When he arrived in the U.S. he informed the government that the Germans were researching how to constuct an atomic bomb. The U.S. started the Manhattan Project, headed by J. Robert Oppenheimer, to do the same thing. The atomic bomb was originally built to be used on the Germans, but by the time it was finished the war with Germany was over, so the bomb was used on Japan to end that war instead.
