      The Manhattan Project was full of spies. The plans were leaked and thankfully a few years later the Soviets detonated their first bomb.

      Can you imagine a post-WWII world in which the US were the only ones with nuclear weapons? Shudder

            especially if they make a song about the time The Soviet atomic program ENORMOZ was headed by Beria, who was very paranoid so instead of giving the leaked info directly to the scientists, they were given in the form of asking the scientists to check if the data match with their own experiments.

            In other words, the leaked Manhattan Project data served mostly to confirm what the Soviets already knew at the time.
