Original: Nazi Germany had no hope of making an atomic bomb, uranium cubes reveal

A new analysis of surviving uranium cubes from Nazi Germany's wartime nuclear program indicates the country never came close to developing an atomic bomb. The findings add physical evidence to historians' long-standing view that the German effort, led by researchers including Werner Heisenberg, was underfunded and scientifically off track compared with the Manhattan Project.

Why now: A fresh scientific study on wartime uranium cubes has reignited debate about how close Nazi Germany really came to a nuclear weapon.
