8 pm - Beyond Oppenheimer: The Story Behind the Manhattan Project
The Manhattan Project changed the world. But who actually lobbied to get the bomb launched? Who were the researchers who built it? What do we know about the facilities where the bomb was built? What were the creative solutions that made the weapon work? And what kind of training did the crews get to deliver the bomb to targets in Japan? Join Stephen Kelly, a former senior engineer at Lockheed Martin, for the revealing answers.
