December 1938

Two German scientists, Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassman, demonstrated nuclear fission. They found they could split the nucleus of a uranium atom by bombarding it with neutrons, the uncharged part of atoms. As the uranium nucleus split, some of its mass was converted to energy.

News of the discovery spread through the scientific community. Other physicists noticed the fission of one uranium atom gave off extra neutrons which could in turn split other uranium atoms, starting a chain reaction. In theory, this energy could be harnessed to make a powerful bomb.
