Nazi Germany had no hope of making an atomic bomb, uranium cubes reveal

New research reveals that Nazi Germany had no realistic chance of developing an atomic bomb due to a lack of sufficient uranium reserves. A study published in the Journal of Nuclear Physics analyzed uranium cubes from the Third Reich's nuclear research program, revealing that they contained only a small fraction of the amount of uranium needed to create a nuclear reaction. The research suggests that the Nazis were unaware of the importance of using high-enriched uranium, and their attempts to create a nuclear bomb would have been futile. The study's findings are based on the analysis of 12 uranium cubes obtained from the archives of the German Federal Institute for Materials Research and Testing.
