J. Robert Oppenheimer was the one who lead the Manhattan Project. He was also called the "father of the atomic bomb"

# data[].attributes.body
The Manhattan Project started in 1939 when two German scientist, Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann, accidently discovered nuclear fission. After a few month, Albert Einstein and Leo Szilard sent a letter to president FDR warning him about Germany possibly build the atomic bomb.

The Manhattan Project is the code name for the research and creation of the atomic bomb in World War II.

Who was in charge of the splitting of uranium-235 during the Manhattan Project?

# data[].attributes.body
The person in charge of splitting uranium-235 is Ernest Orlando Lawrence.

# data[].attributes.body
Plutonium was actually discovered during the Manhattan Project when they made a nuclear reaction inside the X-10 Graphite Reactor. Which created the byproduct, plutonium.

When did the Manhattan Project start and end?

# data[].attributes.body
August 13, 1942 to August 1945.

# data[].attributes.body
The two people that built the first nuclear reactor is Leo Szilard and Enrico Fermi.

The two elements used in the atomic bomb is plutonium and uranium.

What is the third method used for splitting uranium?

# data[].attributes.subject
What is the third method used for splitting uranium?

# data[].attributes.body
The last method used the Electromagnetic Separation method which worked by giving vaporized uranium a positive charge. Also machines called calutrons used electromagnets to repel the two isotopes towards different targets.

What was the first method used for splitting uranium?

# data[].attributes.subject
What was the first method used for splitting uranium?

# data[].attributes.body
The first method they used to split uranium is the gaseous diffusion method, where uranium hexafluoride gas was fed through thousands of identical stages that slowly parted the lighter U-235 molecules from the heavier U-238.

What is the second method used for splitting uranium?

# data[].attributes.subject
What is the second method used for splitting uranium?

# data[].attributes.body
The next method is liquid thermal diffusion method using a heating element to enrich uranium. Then the U-235 molecule would diffuse towards the hotter surface and the U-238 molecule would diffuse towards the cooler surface.

How did they managed to split plutonium?

# data[].attributes.body
Plutonium has 5 common isotope, Pu-238, Pu-239, Pu-240, Pu-241, and Pu-242. The important thing is that all of the common isotopes are fissionable, which means that the nucleus can be easily split apart when it is struck by a neutron.
