17.Throughout July 1945,the Japanese mainland,from Tokyo on Honshu northward to the coast of Hokkaido,were bombed as if an invasion were about to take place.In fact,something far more threatening was at hand,as the Americans were telling Stalin at Potsdam.(伯茨坦)In 1939physicists in the United States had learned of experiments in Germany showing the possibility of atomic power and understood the coming damage of an atomic bomb.On August 2,1939,Albert Einstein warned President Roosevelt of the danger of Nazi Germany's advances in development of the atomic bomb.Eventually,the U.S.Office of Scientific Research Development was created in June 1941and given combined responsibility with the War Department in the Manhattan Project to develop a nuclear bomb.After four years of research and development efforts,an atomic device was set off on July 16,1945,in a desert area at Alamogordo,New Mexico,producing an explosive power equal to that of more than 15,000tons of TNT.Thus,the atomic bomb was born.Truman,the new U.S.president,believed that this terrible object might be used to defeat Japan in a way less costly of U.S.lives than an ordinary invasion of the Japanese homeland.Japan's unsatisfactory reply to the Allies'Potsdam Declaration decided the matter.
On August 6,1945,an atomic bomb,carried from Tinian Island in the Mariana in a specially equipped B-29was dropped on Hiroshima,at the southern end of Honshu.The combined heat and explosion destroyed everything in the explosion's immediate neighbourhood,produced fires that burned out almost 4.4square miles completely,and killed between 70,000and 80,000people,in addition to injuring more than 70,000others.A second bomb dropped on Nagasaki on August 9,killed between 35,000and 40,000people,injured a like number and ruined 1.8square miles.
