A battery clock is very unlikely to produce any radiation of interest. Graham

Why didn't you simply include the entire history of mankind and start with "Adam" then" Einstein *never* worked on the bomb project. His input was limited to sending a letter at Szilard's request. The rest of them, including the important work done by Wheeler's group at Princeton and Bohr, started with the Manhattan Project. The problems to be solved were not whether or not a bomb could work, but actually making it work, and a contingent trying to figure out whether or not once started a chain reaction wouldn't extend to the entire planet. > Weird, as Szil�rd was researching the matter at about the same > time as the Erm�chtigungsgesetz was kicking in (but not publishing > his work for that very reason). Szilard and others were trying to keep up with what the Germans were doing in their nuclear program. We sent a mission to destroy Germany's heavy water facility in Norway. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Norwegian_heavy_water_sabotage > BAH history is BAD history. She's accurate with her time scale of 3 years. And her point is also correct that any country with decent math, science and technology can duplicate the effort in ~3 years, perhaps less, by mounting an effort much smaller than the Manhattan Project was given the wealth of knowledge in the public domain.

The big problem is making enough fissile material. A huge effort was required to make enough for the 3 bombs the USA exploded before the end of WW2. Graham |
