Citat:
Manhattan-projektet läckte oavsiktligt vid ett mycket stort antal tillfällen, avsiktligt vid flera tillfällen och infiltrerades och förråddes av spioner – detta trots att många i projektet inte ens visste vad de arbetade med själva – folk kan helt enkelt inte hålla tyst... Just själv kompertamentaliseringen (försöken att hålla arbetande omedvetna om projektets helhet) ledde istället till att folk skvallrade och läckte information för att försöka lista ut helheten och syftet med det de arbetade med. Att inte ännu mer läckte externt berodde främst på att man isolerade de inblandade från allmänheten, de sattes att arbeta i en egen stad och hölls fysiskt åtskilda från resten av befolkningen - vilket ledde till att de flesta läckorna skedde just inom gruppen - men spioner skickade information utomlands och att påstå att man lyckades hålla det hemligt är rent lögnaktigt.EDIT:
Klaus Emil Julius Fuchs was a German theoretical physicist and atomic spy who supplied information from the American, British and Canadian Manhattan Project to the Soviet Union during and shortly after World War II. While at the Los Alamos Laboratory, Fuchs was responsible for many significant theoretical calculations relating to the first nuclear weapons and, later, early models of the hydrogen bomb. After his conviction in 1950, he served nine years in prison in the United Kingdom, then migrated to East Germany where he resumed his career as a physicist and scientific leader.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Klaus_Fuchs
David Greenglass was an American machinist and atomic spy for the Soviet Union who worked on the Manhattan Project. He was briefly stationed at the Clinton Engineer Works uranium enrichment facility at Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and then worked at the Los Alamos Laboratory in New Mexico from August 1944 until February 1946.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/David_Greenglass
Clarence Francis Hiskey, born Clarence Szczechowski, was a Soviet espionage agent in the United States. He became active in the Communist Party USA (CPUSA) when he attended graduate school at the University of Wisconsin. He became a professor of chemistry at the University of Tennessee, Columbia University and Brooklyn Polytechnic Institute. For a time, Hiskey worked at the Tennessee Valley Authority and the University of Chicago Metallurgical Laboratory, part of the Manhattan Project. On 28 April 1944, Army counter-intelligence (G-2) observed a meeting between Clarence Hiskey and Soviet Military Intelligence (GRU) officer Arthur Adams. Hiskey was removed from the Manhattan Project by drafting him into the Army, and stationing him in Canada for the duration of the conflict.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clarence_Hiskey
Oscar Seborer (June 4, 1921 – April 23, 2015), codenamed Godsend, was an atomic spy for the Soviet Union who worked at the Clinton Engineer Works in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and the Los Alamos Laboratory in New Mexico.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oscar_Seborer
Oscar was drafted into the Army in 1942, but due to his special training he was assigned to the Special Engineer Detachment (SED), a program that identified enlisted personnel with special technical or scientific skills, and put them to work on the Manhattan Project, the effort to build an atomic bomb. He was assigned to the Clinton Engineer Works in Oak Ridge, Tennessee, and then to the Los Alamos Laboratory in New Mexico. He was present at the Trinity nuclear test on July 16, 1945, with a group measuring the seismological effect of the explosion.

Theodore Alvin Hall was an American physicist and an atomic spy for the Soviet Union, who, during his work on United States efforts to develop the first and second atomic bombs during World War II (the Manhattan Project), gave a detailed description of the "Fat Man" plutonium bomb, and of several processes for purifying plutonium, to Soviet intelligence.
