As World War II dragged on, American scientists worked feverishly under the Manhattan Project to develop the first atom bomb. One Nazi leader saw the potential of this powerful weapon to win the war in Europe. According to new documents from a Soviet spy, Hitler's forces tested a nuclear weapon just before the war ended in 1945. How far did the Germans really get?

An assessment of the quality of the heavy water recovered from a barrel of a ferry in norway showed the quality of the heavy water was so weak it would have taken until the year 1983 for the germans to build up enough quality heavy water to be used in the german nuclear weapons program...so effectively the germans were nowhere near developing a nuclear weapon.

Drama for the sake of drama. At no point after 1943 did Germany possess the industrial capacity to process the uranium for a low-yield weapon, and most definitely not the resources for the heavy water and graphite moderated reactors necessary to produce the plutonium and centrifuges for enriched uranium for a higher yield weapon. The high voltage facility discussed was intended to be used to produce heavy water after the Norsk Hydro facility in Norway was destroyed in 1943. The allies bombed the factories that manufactured the components to build electric generators and power plants. That's why the facility was never completed. This is all very open knowledge.

How close did they get? Not very close at all. They completely miscalculated the amount of uranium it would take to reach critical mass. They weren't just a little off they weren't even in the right ballpark. So they assume that there was no way that you would ever be able to build an atomic bomb than an airplane would be able to lift. They also thought that the amount of uranium required would be massive. There is some controversy surrounding this massive mathematical error. Descendants of the man in charge of the program insist that he made the error on purpose so that the Nazis would abandon the research. There is no other proof to really back that up that I'm aware of but it should be noted that the claim has been made

@richardrogers668 Год назад

@Todd Robbins, You could completely dismiss all the reasons why Germany didn't get close to solving the problems of creating the bomb, because they didn't have the resources or infrastructure, It required massive facilities to refine the uranium that could not be covered up and, even if it could be, the radioactive remains would have been easily found.

Even i they did have them, they'd be unable to send them to their targets. Since bombers were easy pray for allied fighter aircrafts and ballistic missiles weren't perfected.

The Nazis never had the facility to produce bomb grade Uranium which is very complicated and expensive. Unless these facilities were discovered post WW2 then they had no possibility.

Apparently you didn't watch the whole video. They were still excavating a possible bunker/facility and then sudden ordered to stop. And they said it's not impossible other secret sites exited.

They had already at least a few nuclear weapons ready to go . But it was too late. It would not have changed the end of the war. They would need more of them .and means of delivery as well. By the way those two bombs that us dropped on Japan were actually German made...
