After two years of highly secret research work, the world's first atomic bomb was tested in the New Mexico desert just over 40 years ago. The scientists, who were members of the Manhattan Project led by Robert Oppenheimer , had proved that their theories could become reality.... and the scene was set for the devastation of Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945. At the time, the men involved worked under the pressure of 'having a war to win', but how do they feel today?
Norman Moss visited Los Alamos, and tracked down some of the scientists involved.
