Interesting to note that 3 of the scientists working on the atomic bombs were actually Soviet spies or in some way passing information to the Soviet nuclear program.
Theodore Hall is particular is interesting because he did it believing that a single country having a monopoly on nuclear energy would result in another Nazi-like menace being unleashed on the world. Quite a mature and far-sighted opinion for someone only 19 years of age.
