Doctor Atomic: The Manhattan Project: The Scientists

In an unprecedented gathering, 11 scientists who helped develop the first atomic bomb discuss their roles and experiences at a 2008 CUNY symposium related to the opera Doctor Atomic. The discussion begins with an overview by Harold Agnew, the former director of Los Alamos National Laboratory, who was involved in almost all aspects of the Manhattan Project and wrote Chicago, Los Alamos, Tinian Island and the Atomic Bomb. The other scientists speaking are Albert Bartlett, Benjamin Bederson, Robert J. Brown, Morton Camac, Hans Courant, Roy Glauber, E. Leonard Jossem, Nathan T. Melamed, Murray Peshkin and Tom Wartik.

@freedomseaker1 Nikola Tesla had delivered remote control weapons of mass destruction at the speed of light anonymously that were thousands of times the magnitude of Hiroshima and Nagasaki yet left no radiation more than four decades before WW II. If The Manhattan Project actually originated in Manhattan that is the one thing they would not have "codenamed" the project.. Nuclear weapons engineered dirty on purpose to discourage use, hinder delivery, regulate manufacture and consolidate control.

@freedomseaker1 A century before HAARP Nikola Tesla caused earthquakes in Alaska in 1899. Tesla did it with nothing like what is today HAARP. For some reason I get a strange feeling HAARP might be there to detect if anybody else does.

@faroutadventures The Manhattan Project got it's name from an 1898 earthquake caused by Nikola Tesla in 1898 in Manhattan. SO SAITH THE LORD YOUR GOD. I AM NOT WRONG. -Tesla made earthquakes in 1899
