now, although leo's log was a forld famous physicist, he doesn't have the same status that albert einstein did. so the letter was drafted under einstein's name and here is a copy of the letter in which you could see was sent in august of 194 1939. so the war in europe has not started yet. germany doesn't invade poland until september but this is the lead up to it. and here is an excerpt that may it become possible to set up a nuclear clain reaction in a large vast amount of power and new raidum like elements would be generated. new phenomenon would lead to the construction of bombs and it is conceivable that extremely powerful bombs of a new type may be constructed. a single bomb of this type carried by a boat and exploded in a port might destroy the whole port together with some of the surrounding territory. and then of course just a few weeks later, germany invades poland and we are in the start of world war ii. on october 19th, fdr responds back to professor einstein and he said i found that data of such import that we will thoroughly investigate the possibilities of your suggestion reg

he was a world famous physicists, obviously he did not have the same status that albert einstein did. the letter was drafted under einstein's name. here is a copy of the letter. in which you can see was sent in august of 1939. the war in europe still has not started yet. germany does not invade poland until september. but this is the lead up to it. there is tremendous concern on the part of the scientists, as you can see in the expert -- excerpt, but it may become possible to set up a nuclear chain reaction by which vast amount of power and large quantities of new radium like illness would be generated. this new phenomenon would lead to the construction of bombs, and it is conceivable though much less certain that extremely powerful bombs of a new type may thus be constructed. a single bomb of this type carried by boat and exploded in a port, might very well destroy the whole port together with some of the surrounding territory. and then of course, a few weeks later, germany invades poland. and we are in the start of world war ii. on october 19th, fdr responded back to professor einst

that includes albert einstein. there's an increasing fear as we get to the late 1930's that germany, which still has a lot of brilliant scientists, may develop a nuclear weapon, and at -- an atom bomb. and the last thing any of these scientists want is to have hitler to have access to the nly atom bomb in the world. so in 1939, albert einstein writes a letter to fdr, and basically says, we think this technology is out there. and the united states, the free world needs to develop it before hitler and the nazis do. oosevelt sits on until 1942, some winston churchill and of the scientists in great britain, in 1942, and the scientists in manhattan. and they started dusty assigned a major general named lesly gross to put this together. and he realizes you cannot have scientists all of the country, you have to put them together and that is the beginning of the manhattan project. we see three major installations, oak ridge in tennessee, which ends up becoming an enrichment, uranium enrichment site. and hanford, washington

everyone who is anyone including albert einstein who as you can imagine was on every college campus in the united states and he made a point of wanting to go and did go. he was a very small boy but the family and julian are eyes talked about that, albert einstein said julian don't memorize anything authority written down and it was something julian lived by his whole life. so was a fabulously enriching environment and they sent julian -- schools were segregated and lincoln pennsylvania and so there were three kids and they'll went to private school. so they went to his you mentioned george school in newhall pennsylvania and that was a quaker school where he was the only -- there was one other black students who was the day students because he was the son of the cook at school. he spoke very fondly of george school always and had many friends. that was not easy for him either and the -- the school told him not to wear anything that said george school when he went into town because they didn't want the townspeople to know that they had a black student. but it was a wonderful education we

we've done albert einstein, jackie robinson, rosa parks, we did lucille ball because i wanted my daughter to have a female entertainment hero. it's fantastic to be different, right in today we have so much problem with anyone who's different. that's the best part of everyone in this room is we're all different. and we did helen keller where she -- when she goes blind, the book goes black. we put real braille in the book. my name's helen, what's your name. but this amazing thing happened as donald trump and hillary were fighting it out two years ago, something crazy happened with our book series, and that is two books started selling more than any others. and they were i am george washington, and i am martin luther king jr. and some were two, three years old, but they took off in sales. it wasn't a democrat or republican thing which, you know, we all are tempted to divide everything by these days. but it was parents and grandparents were looking at the tv in that november and seeing every day politicians, and what they wanted to show their kids were leaders. we all know there's a huge diff

but everybody came, everyone who's anyone, including albert einstein who, as you can imagine, was invited to speak at every college campus and the united states and spoken very few but he made a point of wanting to go and did go speak at lincoln. so julian met him -- well, you know, he was a very small boy, the family laura, what julian always told about that was albert isis said to julian, don't memorize anything that's already written down. it was something julian lived by the whole, his whole life. so it was a fabulously enriching environment and they sent julian, the schools were segregated in lincoln, pennsylvania, and so there were three kids and they sent all of them to private school and julian went to, as you mentioned, georgia school in pennsylvania and that was a quaker school where he wasn't the only -- there was one other black student who was a day student because he was the son of the court at the school. he spoke very fondly of georgia school always, and had many friends, but that was not easy for him either. there were things like they told the school told her not to wear

emilio ehrhardt and we started to give them the my kids but now we are on 16 books we've done albert einstein, jackie robinson, rosa parks and we did lucille ball because i want my daughter to have a female entertainment hero who is not just famous for being thin and pretty. lucy's idea was it was fantastic to be different. today we have so many problems with people who are different. the best part of the people in this room is that we are different. we did helen keller when she goes blind in the book goes black. we put real braille in the book so it's this amazing thing that happened. as donald trump and hilary were fighting it out two years ago as the election in november was approaching something crazy happened with a book series and that is to book started selling more than any others and they were i am george washington and i am martin luther and king junior. summer two, three years old but they took off in sales. it wasn't a democrat or republican thing which we all are attempted to divide everything by these days but was parents and grandparents were looking at the tv in that november

i was reading something about albert einstein that he had the letter sent to truman encouraging the usef the bomb until the bomb was dropped at which point he publicly said he was sorry that he had done something like that, having seen the destructive power of it. the navy and i know the power of the virginia class subs. i think we have reached a point in our history where we have to use our god-given intelligence as animals, the human animal being the most intelligent so far, to be more productive than the destructive -- then destructive. destructive. i think we have to decide whether or not we are going to use our knowledge at this crossroad to survive ourselves or to justify in some way and we always do justify it, to destroy ourselves. there are ways of doing things that make the difference. and i am trying to describe some of them. i guess that is about it. thank you for your time. host: pat, to your point about we will talk to ian toll about this, but i believe in nagasaki in particular they were targeting two mitsubishi war production plants. even though that bomb was three quart
