On August 29, 1949, the Soviet Union successfully tested its first atomic bomb.
The announcement shocked the world, especially the United States, which predicted the Soviets wouldn’t have Nuclear Weapons until the mid-1950s.
The big question was, how did the Soviets make the bomb so fast? Well, the Americans inadvertently helped them, as did the resources they captured in Eastern Europe.
Learn more about how the Soviets got the bomb on this Episode of Everything Everywhere Daily.
