The Making of the Atomic Bomb – How Science Unleashed Fear & Power

In this video we explore the incredible story told by Richard Rhodes in The Making of the Atomic Bomb. We trace how scientists went from curiosity about the atom to unleashing a weapon that changed humanity forever.
You’ll learn:
How nuclear fission was discovered and what it meant for physics.
How war, fear and politics drove the race for the bomb.
What happened at the Trinity Test and the bombings of Hiroshima & Nagasaki.
The paradox: the same science that destroyed also powers life and healing.
What this story teaches us about today’s technologies (AI, biotech, etc.).
