The story
Edward Teller is recruited to Los Alamos and theorizes that an explosion could cause global atmospheric ignition.
When his theory is disproved, he starts researching fusion-based weapons instead of working on the proposed fission bombs.
In July 1945, the US Army successfully conducts the Trinity test, the first detonation of a nuclear weapon.
