Summary
Oak Ridge, Tennessee, was a secret city of 75,000 people during World War II. This hidden community was established for the Manhattan Project's atomic bomb development. Residents worked on crucial tasks without knowing the overall purpose of their efforts. The city remained invisible to the public until the atomic bombs were deployed. Today, Oak Ridge is a mapped city and a historical park.
