Context for Dropping the "A" Bomb
The Atomic Bomb was a turning point in history because it created incredible advancements in nuclear technology, shortened World War II by approximately 5 years saving millions of lives, and forever changed the way world powers choose to fight wars.
After the dropping of the bomb, world scientists were fascinated with the anatomy, effects, and mechanics of the brilliant death machine created by Albert Einstein, who later felt horribly about the effects his invention left on Nagasaki and Hiroshima, Japan.
The "A" bomb saved the lives of hundreds of thousands of solders by forcing Japan out of the war without the need for an invasion. If unused, the war would have extended many costly years that would have plunged countries further into debt, great loses in lives, and put cities in ruins.
Because of this bomb, we now have many nuclear weapons that change the way we fight in wars, though they have not been launched in battle yet, the next war there is could very possibly be a nuclear one, all because of the invention of the atomic bomb.
