Ah, the atomic bomb: humanity's ultimate “oops” moment. First, we had the brilliant idea of splitting the atom, like a child smashing a piggy bank for candy money. Fast forward to 1945, and voilà! Instead of candy, we got a couple of cities turned into instant ghost towns. Who knew that a little physics could lead to a whole lot of regret? A quick reminder that while we’re busy splitting atoms, let's not forget the sizable mess we’re capable of creating.

But hey, at least history books will have enough content to keep us all entertained—if we can get past the whole “obliteration” part.

The History and Physics of the Atomic Bomb
First came the idea of splitting the atom; then, a chain of events leading to a moment forever etched in collective memory—the use of nuclear weapons on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in 1945.
