How Close Was Nazi Germany To Making An Atomic Bomb?

Описание: During WWII, Nazi Germany's nuclear ambitions fell short — but how close did they really get?

While the US was already making significant progress at Los Alamos, Hitler prioritized rocket technology, believing weapons like the V-2 rocket would secure victory.

German physicist Werner Heisenberg launched the German nuclear program, working with uranium, the same material the US used in the Hiroshima bomb.

However, Heisenberg miscalculated the amount of uranium needed, delaying progress. By the time they realized their mistake, Germany lacked the resources to continue.

In the end, Nazi Germany’s atomic ambitions never came close to the bomb that reshaped history.
