Super Weapon of War
The Manhattan Project officially started on August 13, 1942. This was the day when the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers was tasked with overseeing the project, marking its formal beginning. The project aimed to develop the first nuclear weapons during World War II.
The project was initiated after fears that Nazi Germany might develop an atomic bomb first. The Trinity test, the first detonation of a nuclear bomb, took place on July 16, 1945. This test, conducted by the United States as part of the Manhattan Project, marked the beginning of the nuclear age. The bomb was detonated in the Jornada del Muerto desert in New Mexico.
The Manhattan Project was motivated by fears that Nazi Germany was pursuing similar research. The discovery of nuclear fission by German physicists Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassmann in 1938, followed by theoretical explanations by Lise Meitner and Otto Frisch, demonstrated the potential for atomic energy to be weaponized. Prominent scientists like Albert Einstein and Leo Szilard were instrumental in urging the U.S. government to act, most notably through the Einstein-Szilard letter to President Franklin D. Roosevelt in 1939, which warned of Germany’s nuclear ambitions. Albert Einstein later understood the UFO connection.
It is believed that Germany had a head start in nuclear development due to a 1933 UFO crash in Magenta, Italy, under Mussolini’s rule. This incident allegedly prompted the formation of Cabinet RS/33, a secret group investigating the crash. Initially thought to be German, the craft was later deemed non-human. Germany and Italy, under Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini, formed a strong alliance during World War II. This relationship solidified with the signing of the Pact of Steel in 1939, a military and political alliance binding both nations in mutual cooperation. This cooperation appears to have extended to scientific research, including possible collaboration on advanced technologies, which may have influenced Germany’s nuclear development trajectory.
After Italy’s fall, materials from this event were reportedly transferred to the U.S. via Operation Paperclip.
While Japan was an adversary, Germany’s technological advancements, military aggressiveness, and the fact that many key scientific discoveries had originated there made it the primary focus of the Manhattan Project. By 1945, with Germany’s surrender, Japan became the target for the use of atomic bombs, leading to the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
There is a supposed memorandum from President Franklin D. Roosevelt to General George C. Marshall, the Chief of Staff of the Army in 1942. The document discusses the handling of materials that could significantly impact the development of a “super weapon of war” and references atomic secrets derived from “celestial devices.”
In 1942, Roosevelt was heavily focused on atomic research, particularly through the Manhattan Project, which aimed to develop nuclear weapons. Dr. Vannevar Bush, mentioned in the memo, was a central figure in wartime scientific research, his work was largely focused on atomic energy and other scientific innovations and a member of MJ-12.
The memo also references General William J. Donovan, who was head of the Office of Strategic Services (OSS), the precursor to the CIA. The mention of not sharing information with the Soviet Union aligns with historical tensions between the United States and the USSR, especially concerning nuclear technology. This tension later escalated during the Cold War, but in 1942, the U.S. and Soviet Union were still allies in the fight against Nazi Germany.
The Army was in possession of early UFO materials from the The Cape Girardeau UFO crash of 1941 and the Battle of Los Angeles of 1942. The Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit (IPU) was a secretive U.S. Army unit with a primary focus to the investigation of unidentified flying objects (UFOs) and possibly extraterrestrial phenomena. The existence of the IPU has been confirmed through the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) requests. The IPU was believed to have been part of the Army’s Scientific and Technical Branch, and its records transferred to the Air Force Office of Special Investigations (AFOSI), possibly linking it to Project Blue Book, the Air Force’s program for investigating UFO sightings.
The Manhattan Project, officially initiated in 1942, was the U.S. response to the fear of Nazi Germany developing nuclear weapons first. Beyond the scientific race, advanced technology influences, including UFO incidents and foreign intelligence, may have contributed to the development of what would become the world’s first “Super Weapon of War.” Secret military units like the Interplanetary Phenomenon Unit and reports of recovered materials point to possible NHI connections. The Manhattan Project successfully ushered in the nuclear age, forever altering global warfare.
