One night, flying back from a raid, I saw an amazing sight like a meteor. (engine rumbling) A V-2 rocket headed to England. I can't help but imagine what it will be for such an enemy rocket to carry an atomic warhead. (rhythmic stomping)

It would ignite the atmosphere. (whooshing) When we detonate an atomic device, we might start a chain reaction that... destroys the world.

Absolutely. We will test fire before the conference.

(thunder rumbling) I'm betting on three kilotons.

STRAUSS: Robert saw that hand-wringing got him nowhere. By the time I'd met him, he'd fully embraced his "father of the bomb" reputation. Used his profile to influence policy. (clamoring)

Hmm? (sniffs) (spool winds) (explosion) That's the one. (grunts) Two viable bombs. I need a date.

Don't take in the sheets. (breathes heavily) (clamoring) REPORTER: Get a picture with him. REPORTERS: Sir, sir. SENATE AIDE: Two minutes. Two minutes. - You'll get your shot. - REPORTER 1: Please, sir. We've been waiting for so long. - REPORTER 2: Evening, sir. - REPORTER 3: Come out. REPORTER 4: Sir, sir! STRAUSS: Is it official?

The fact that we built this bomb does not give us any more... any more right or responsibility to decide how it's used than anyone else. But we're the only people who know about it. I've told Stimson the various opinions of the community. But what's your opinion?
