Albert Einstein's atomic bomb warning letter sells for Rs. 32.7 crore: Content inside
The letter, dated August 2, 1939, was written at a time when the world was on the brink of war. Einstein, who had fled Nazi Germany, was deeply concerned about the potential for Germany to develop nuclear weapons. In the letter, he warned Roosevelt about the possibility of Nazi scientists achieving a breakthrough in nuclear fission, which could lead to the creation of extremely powerful bombs. He emphasized the urgent need for the United States to support and prioritize its own nuclear research to counter this threat.

Einstein’s letter highlighted recent scientific advancements, particularly the discovery that uranium could be used as a new and significant source of energy. He explained that this energy could be harnessed to create bombs of unprecedented destructive power. This warning was a catalyst for the U.S. government’s decision to launch the Manhattan Project, a top-secret initiative that ultimately led to the development of the first atomic bombs.
The letter’s journey to the auction block is as fascinating as its contents. It was initially part of the Franklin D. Roosevelt Library’s collection in New York. Over the years, it changed hands several times, becoming part of the collections of nota
SWEet Wisdom: What Influenced You Towards Engineering?
As someone quoted:
“To the optimist, the glass is half full.
To the pessimist, the glass is half empty.
To the engineer, the glass is twice as big as it needs to be.”
Engineering is meant to create, design, solve, analyze and evaluate solutions to a particular problem. It helps us to become revolutionary. Developing these skills at the early stage of our education will always be a plus. Let’s hear what our SWEet Professional Members answer this question:
What influenced you to work towards a career in the engineering field?

There is a quote by Albert Einstein – “I have no special talent. I am only passionately curious.”The same curiosity made me ask questions like “why” and “how”. Curiosity encouraged me to solve problems and also made me create new problems to solve. That influenced me to build a career where I will wake up every day as a kid with curiosity to learn, experiment and solve more.

Aristotle had said –
“For the things we have to learn before we can do them, we learn by doing them.”
That says practice makes a woman perfect in what she wants to do. The engineering field interests me and is my passion, so I love to invest my time in developing new skills and learning new technologies. Once it’s about liking and passion then practicing certain skill becomes natural and enjoyable.

Sunny Deol claims to have an IQ of 160, netizens call him 'Einstein 2.0'
Scepticism arose when Sunny confidently stated that his IQ surpassed 160, comparing himself favourably to other individuals who had achieved this score during childhood.However, these bold assertions were met with amusement by netizens, who promptly took to social media where they shared memes comparing Deol to luminaries like Albert Einstein.
It's worth noting that the Wechsler Adult Intelligence Scale, developed by psychologist David Wechsler in 1955, is used to assess various aspects of intelligence beyond general cognitive abilities. An IQ score of 130 or higher is categorized as "Superior" and is achieved by only 2 per cent of the population. To put this in perspective, Albert Einstein, one of history's greatest minds, was believed to have had an IQ score of 160, which was considered exceptionally high. Therefore, when Sunny Deol claimed to share a comparable IQ with the late genius, it provoked widespread laughter and disbelief.
One user on social media humorously commented, "Sunny Deol has an IQ of 160+. Albert Einstein had an IQ of 160. Bollywood took away a genius who could have brought us a Nobel Prize 🏆." Another user playfully added, "I believe #SunnyDeol has an IQ of 160. Who else can uproot a hand pump in a blockbuster film at the age of 6 or 60?? #Gadar2?"
The incident also served as an opportunity for people to criticize Deol for his infrequent attendance in parliament, leading to an influx of laughing emojis in the comment section.
