It is said the idea that America should make an atomic bomb come from a letter sent to the president Franklin D. Roosevelt from Albert Einstein. In the letter, Einstein warned the president of German efforts to build a nuclear weapon. Einstein urged the President to monitor the nuclear developments in the letter. We didn’t exactly monitor it, but instead we made our own… :/
When Einstein asked to be monitoring the efforts of making an atomic bomb by Germany, President Roosevelt didn’t take any action until two years later. Roosevelt didn’t ask to monitor the efforts in Germany, instead he asked the Office of Scientific Research and Development to see if WE could make an atomic bomb. The Army Corps of Engineers were assigned to build research
