Technology has shaped America in many ways, from the development of complex computer systems accessible to ordinary people to the ability to track weather patterns across the globe . Without technology, we certainly would not be where we are today as a high-tech society. Much of this technology comes from World War II. During the Second World War, the atomic bomb took hold, making it the most technological weapon in history. Radar equipment was also produced, as well as medicines to prevent disease, nutrition research, high-powered jet engines to power aircraft, and the V-1 and V-2 rockets. Thanks to all this technology, World War II was known as the first high-tech war. The Manhattan Project was launched by the United States with the aim of creating the first atomic bomb. Scientist Albert Einstein proposed the idea of ​​creating a "super bomb" to President Theodore Roosevelt in 1939, because he feared that Germany would create such a bomb before the United States, and so they wanted to get ahead of them. This atomic bomb would be extremely powerful. The science of creating an atomic bomb was spread all over the world. Every country knew it could happen, they just needed someone to make it happen. Einstein quoted Franklin Roosevelt: “We face a primordial fact: if civilization is to survive, we must cultivate the science of human relations – the ability of people of all kinds to live and work together in the same world, in peace . " (Roosevelt 1945). Einstein responded to this by saying: "We have learned, and paid a terrible price to learn, that living and working together can only be done in one way: under the law. to think, ...... middle of paper ......e The V2 rocket was used not only for war, but also for high-altitude research NASA abandoned the rocket idea. V2. early 1950s for space exploration, but without it we certainly wouldn't have some of the research we have gathered today. Even though World War II was a terrible and deadly war it brought. many good things. The ideas and innovations the war brought about We cannot live in a high-tech world today. Without the creations of World War II, we might not be where we are. we are as a society, along with our planes and jet engines that allow us to explore and examine more of the outside world. space and learn more about the world. All these ideas and innovations certainly prove that World War II was the most high-tech war of the time, and many things that came from the war help us today in one way or another..
