520			_aAn adaptation from the book American Prometheus about atomic scientist J. Robert Oppenheimer by Kai Bird and Martin J. Sherwin, this article "charts the secret debate over deployment of the first A-bomb and the anxiety that suffused its first live test" (SMITHSONIAN).. It is noted that "without Oppenheimer's extraordinary leadership, atomic bombs would not have been completed in time to be used during the war. That was both a matter of pride and a heavy burden for 'the father of the atomic bomb.'"
