following dates: August 13, 1942 July 16, 1945 August 9, 1945 April 26, 1986 December 2,

Solution
On August 13, 1942, the Manhattan Engineer District was founded to direct and coordinate a
series of research projects known as the Manhattan project under the direction of engineer Leslic
Groves.
On December 2, 1942, Enrico Fermi and his collaborators achieved the first self-sustained and
controlled chain fission reaction, only four years after it was discovered that a uranium atom
bombarded with neutrons could be split (or fission) generating a large amount of energy and
several neutrons that could continue the process by impacting other uranium atoms.
July 16, 1945 the first nuclear bomb is detonated in the desert of the Alamo Gordo, in New
Mexico (United States). Call the Trinity test.
On August 6, 1945, when World War II was about to end, a uranium bomb called "Little Boy"
was launched by the mythical plane Enola Gay on Hiroshima (Japan) and caused more than
100,000 deaths, besides destroying the city. The order was given by Harry Truman, president of
the United States.
On August 9, 1945, a plutonium bomb called "Fat Man" was dropped on Nagasaki, with results
comparable to that released 3 days earlier.
Ivy Mike, the first hydrogen bomb (thermonuclear fusion bomb) and that was developed by the
Americans. It was detonated in an atoll in the Marshall Islands at 7:15 (local time) on November
1, 1952, or at 7:15 pm on October 31 (world time).
On July 26, 1986, the Chernobyl nuclear power plant accident occurred. It was the biggest
nuclear catastrophe in history. The explosion took place in the fourth block of the Chernobyl
nuclear power station, located only 120 kilometers from the capital of Ukraine - Kiev, near the
border with Belarus.
As a result of the earthquake and tsunami that occurred on March 11, 2011 in Japan, the
Fukushima nuclear power plant was seriously damaged. This number 1 plant of Tokyo Electric
Power in Fukushima (known as Daiichi) is located about 270 kilometers northeast of Tokyo, has
six boiling light water reactors, operates since 1971 and had permission to continue active until
the year 2021.

This number 1 plant of Tokyo Electric Power in Fukushima (known as Daiichi) is located about 270 kilometers northeast of Tokyo, has six boiling light water reactors, operates since 1971 and had permission to continue active until the year 2021.
