The Nuclear Age and its Proliferation.

THE NUCLEAR AGE
In the history of mankind, the nuclear age began with the successful invention and testing of the atomic bomb💣 by Robert Oppenheimer and other German exiles like Leo szilard and Niels born. But the father of the atomic bomb💣 and nuclear age is Albert Einstein. Humanity was very lucky that Nazi Germany under the dictatorship of Adolf Hitler did not first discover the atomic bomb💣 because he first conceived and commence the the project for atomic bomb 💣.

Adolf Hitler was one of the most eccentric totalitarian leaders in human history, most of the scienctist who were working for the invention of the atomic bomb💣 for Hitler ran away to the US because of his tyrannical and aggressive nature. These exiles sold the idea 💡 to president Franklin Roosevelt who commissioned the MANHATTAN PROJECT that gave birth to the atomic bomb and nuclear age.

The project was a top secret and Joseph Stalin of the USSR was not informed, Franklin Roosevelt eventually died in service as president of USA and was replaced by his vice Harry S. Truman who was not aware of the project, it was thus a big surprise to him when he got the information while in the Potsdam Conference that America has acquired the capacity of a Nuclear Power tested in the moon 🌙.

The reality of what the invention of the atomic bomb and beginning of the nuclear age portends for the international system and humanity was made manifest in Hiroshima and Nagasaki Bombing which transpired on the early hours of August 6, 1945.when an American B-29 dropped a single bomb on the Japanese city of Hiroshima.

The blinding flash of the explosion💥 a few seconds later was followed by the appearance of a mush-roomed-shaped cloud which soon towered for miles over the doomed city which claimed the lives of over 150,000 people and many of the latter were to die in agony from radiation effect and 75 percent of the building of the city were destroyed and badly damaged. In these apocalyptic way the people of the world learned that the atomic age had begun.in a single moment, it's seemed, problems of international conflict and cooperation of war and peace had become question of the future of mankind even of its survival.... The unseen atom has become perhaps the greatest force in the world.

The core reason for the establishment of these write up is to remind and sensitize the world about the terrible effect of the age(nuclear age) we are into and how we are like preys to the (predators) superpowers who had acquired the capacity of nuclear power. And how man has practically produced higher instrument of death that can claim lives nobody can ever replace.

Possibly tomorrow, we share talk more about the PROLIFERATION OF THE ATOMIC AND NUCLEAR AGE.
