I don’t really know that much about what happened at Hiroshima, all I know is that a bomb was dropped. I was surprised about the impact of the bomb had on the entire world not just Japan. I think I’ll be challenged in this project to understand the importance of the bomb and what it means today not just what it means in the past. I think the thing that is inspired me the most in this project is understanding the importance of the bomb and why it should be taught to all of us.
What Happened when the Bomb Dropped
So learning about this project is fascinating so far learning the impact that had we’ve been reading a book about Hiroshima and hearing it from the points of survivors. Hearing it from the point of survivors humanize the people who died and showing that they weren’t just numbers or statistics shows that there are people doing normal things before the bomb hit. Showing the importance of the impact that the bomb had on so many people and showing how much damage it really did.
What did Oppenheimer Think of the Bomb
We’ve also learned about the what Oppenheimer thought of the bomb after it was dropped Oppenheimer quoted from the Bhagavad Gita is, “now I have become death destroyer of the worlds” which shows how he is taken on the guilt that led to what happened.
Driving Question
How did the development of the atomic bomb alter the world we live in today? This is the driving question I have to answer during this project to understand why the atomic bomb was so important and why it changed so much of our history.
Zettelkasten
The note in this project, we have to make it a zettelkasten One of the notes they made us take it on was on the book Hiroshima we had to make a note about the first chapter and what it is about.
