Interview with Carter Hydrick – evidence published in Fed 
2017 that Nazis successfully tested a nuclear bomb in 
October 1944, 9 months before the first US atom bomb test 
at Los Alamos – Carter Hydrick's book 'Critical Mass' 
explains how over ½ ton of enriched uranium was shipped 
by submarine to US in May 1945 and used in the Hiroshima 
and Nagasaki atom bombs – Carter Hydrick presents to Oak 
Ridge National Laboratory scientists and technicians 
research from his book Critical Mass: How Nazi Germany 
Surrendered Enriched Uranium for the United States' 
Atomic Bomb - research on the book took a great toll on his 
personal life.  Secret files reveal Nazis 'tested nuclear 
bomb' before end of WW2 as Adolf Hitler plotted to 
decimate Britain.  World War II: “Operation Unthinkable”, 
Churchill’s Planned Invasion of the Soviet Union, July 1945.

Uranium
 "Oh what idiots we have all been." 
  Niels Bohr, physicist, Nobel Prize winner, 
  upon hearing of the splitting of the atom.
  Until 14 May, 1945, the day U-234 surrendered to the United States at sea, Germany had always held the lead in the race for the atomic bomb - even before anybody knew there was a race being run.  Way back in 1789, 150 years before the pernicious purpose of uranium was conceived, Martin Klaproth discovered this last, and heaviest, of the elements found in nature.  Appropriately, given later physics history - or maybe inevitably - Klaproth was German.  In the century and a half between Klaproth's discovery and the splitting of the first atom - a uranium atom - little happened with the element.  In the small amounts that it could be found, uranium was considered relatively rare, although it has since been discovered in varying quantities almost everywhere on earth.   Prior to the effort to build a bomb, however, uranium was used almost exclusively as a pigment in ceramic glazes; no one could devise any other practical use for it.  But when the first atom was split at the end of 1938, the whole world changed.
  Advances in physics, particularly the effort to understand the make-up of the atom, had physicists and radiochemists across the globe experimenting with uranium, the natural world's largest atom.  As a result, the first atom was split, quite by accident, by Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann, two Germans, at the Kaiser Wilhelm Institute of Physics in Berlin.
  Hahn and Strassmann - both radiochemists not physicists - did not immediately realize what they had achieved.  They had been bombarding uranium with slow neutrons expecting its transmutation to other isotopes of uranium or other heavy elements.  But the result of their experiment showed, along with isotopes of uranium, of which U238 is the most common, evidence of traces of barium were present as well, which has an atomic mass slightly larger than half of uranium's mass.
  At first, neither scientist could reckon how the atomic weight had been cut in half. The cleaving of an atom, with its powerful internal force holding it together, was considered impossible and splitting the atom had never crossed their minds. The pair assumed they had not carried out their experiments correctly; but careful checks using control samples they knew were pure proved they had not contaminated the experiment with material already containing barium. Only then did they consider that the impossible may have happened.  Hahn wrote his former co-worker, Lise Meitner, an Austrian-born Jew who, now in her 60s, had over 40 years experience in radiochemistry and a native genius for diagnosing chemical and nuclear puzzles.
  On Christmas Eve, while contemplating the remarkable events written to her in Hahn's letter during a holiday at the seaside in Sweden, Meitner was visited by her nephew and fellow researcher Otto Frisch.  Frisch would later be the one who coined the term 'fission'lvi - borrowed from the microbiology lexicon and which describes the dividing of living cells - as the moniker for the splitting of atoms....
