Taste the Power
Then challenge students to design their own nuclear reactor and build a ‘model’ of the layers of the CP-1 using edible (or non-edible) building
materials!

Manhattan Project Organization
Learn about secret research and sites and even secret
cities! One even in TN!
And learn about what happened
at 5:30 in the morning on July
16th, 1945.

Nuclear Bomb Delivery
It's one thing to build a nuclear bomb. It's another thing entirely to deliver the weapon to its intended target and detonate it successfully!How did they do it?

It’s Not Delivery (actually, it is!)
In the past they used the Enola Gay. How
does bomb delivery happen today?

Bomber Planes: You Dropped a Bomb on Me!
Students participate in a bomb drop accuracy, distance flown, and time in the air competition using origami bomber planes they construct themselves.

Never Surrender!
Discuss the reasoning behind Japan’s refusal to
surrender, and the shocking thing that
happened (not the bomb) that made them sign.

Make an Origami Samurai Helmet
The Samurai helmet is a traditional Japanese origami model which has been folded for many hundreds of years as a symbol of strength and
honor.

What If? Preserving the Past
Students discuss the complex legacy associated with the Manhattan project and will give their opinions on whether they agree or disagree with the article’s points.

Nuclear Power Today
Today, the nuclear power plant stands on the border between humanity's greatest hopes and its deepest fears for the future, offering a clean
energy alternative that frees us from the shackles of fossil fuel dependence, and summoning
images of disaster: quake-ruptured Japanese power plants belching radioactive steam, the
abandoned dead zone surrounding Chernobyl.But what happens inside a nuclear power plant
to bring such marvel and misery into being?
