  The Manhattan Project was one of the largest scientific collaborations ever
undertaken. It operated thanks to a complex social network of extraordinary
minds and it became undoubtedly one of the most remarkable intellectual efforts
of human history. It also had devastating consequences during and after the
atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Despite the loss of hundreds of
thousands of human lives during the bombing and the subsequent events, the
scientific journey itself stands as a testament to human achievement, as
highlighted in Christopher Nolan's film portrayal of Oppenheimer.
