The Hydrogen Bomb: Enrico Fermi and Edward Teller

Melissa Jordine said, "It was proved to be a very important year in 1949, she is right (Cold War). This is the midst of the cold war, and the tension between the Soviet Union and the United States is very serious. America has always opposed the Russian Communist government, but when the Soviet leader Vladimir Lenin announces his intention to overthrow the global capitalist system including American boast system (Cold War), their hostility is It became even more intense. .

In the years before World War II, America recruited Europe's top talent for our nuclear program. Scientists such as Albert Einstein, Enrico Fermi and Edward Taylor emigrated to the United States and played an important role in ensuring the future of our country and developing its nuclear advantage. Today, we need to consider the new "Einstein principle" for immigration policy. It makes brains, talents and special skills a priority. The focus is to attract more people with the potential to increase American innovation and competitiveness, increase the possibility of economic prosperity, and improve the standard of living for all people.

People believe that we can live outside the land, why do we believe we can not live in that land? In the roundabout, the relevance of these two ideas can be traced back to Enrico Fermi. In 1950, Fermi, the father of the atomic bomb, asked Edward Teller, the father of the hydrogen bomb, "Where are you?" To further discuss this issue, the so-called Fermi paradox was born as follows. : The earth is an ordinary planet that orbits around an ordinary star. Given the era of the universe and the speed of our own technological progress, you will expect some intelligent shapes of life from other parts of the galaxy to appear on the earth. However, such existence was not found and there were no signs. So where are they?

Edward Teller (1908-) is a Hungarian-American physicist known for research on hydrogen bombs. Born in Budapest, Teller is educated at the Karisruhe Institute of Technology in Germany and the universities of Munich and Leipzig. In 1941, he became a US citizen and took part in a US atomic bomb development project known as the Manhattan Project. For over a decade, he has worked with Italian-born physicist Enrico Fermi at the Columbia University, the University of Chicago, and the Manhattan Project in Los Amos, New Mexico. He was the chief architect of the invention of hydrogen bombs, was first tested in 1952 (2 pages) and strongly insisted that the United States will continue to test thermal nuclear weapons.
