| Description |
The town of Los Alamos, New Mexico did not exist until 1943 when it was decided that this location would be the centre for research, design and final assembly of the first atomic bombs - to be dropped on Japan. It existed in secret. It wasn't on any map, no mail was delivered there (mail went to Santa Fe instead) and famous scientists were given false names. Security fences, patrolled by the military deterred anyone curious. After the war work on atomic bombs continued. To this day there is large secure area (now separated from the town) where work on a variety of things nuclear and otherwise continues. No unauthorised outsider was allowed to enter the town until 1957. Today the town is open to visitors, with an atomic museum and historic buildings available to visit. This is an original building from the secret period. It is known as Fuller Lodge and is now an arts centre. |
