Albert Einstein and the Atomic Bomb: A Legacy of Conscience, Not Creation

Albert Einstein never worked on the Manhattan Project, the US program that developed the atomic bomb. His involvement was limited to signing a letter warning President Roosevelt about Nazi Germany's potential nuclear program. Despite his name becoming synonymous with the atomic age, Einstein spent his later life advocating against nuclear weapons.
