The cost of invading Japan was extrapolated from the previous invasions of Japanese held islands. A conservative estimate was that over a million US servicemen would be casualties and that there would be a similar rate among Japanese civilians, not to mention the Japanese military. The shock value of the A-bomb and the loss of several hundred thousands probably saved several million lives.

The Manhattan Project was the code name of the atomic bomb building project that was taking place in America during World War II. The argument for the creation of the bomb was that the Germans were in a race to develop nuclear weapons, and the US wanted to have the technology first.

What weapon did the US build in 1952?
During the Cold War (when US want the world to be capitalist while Russia wanted it to be communist) in 1950, US President Harry S. Truman authorized the invention of a bomb stronger than the atomic bomb (A-bomb), which both US and Russia already had in their arsenals, just in case if there would be a World War III when World War II just ended. The US tested its first H-bomb (hydrogen bomb) in 1952, which was thousands of times stronger than the A-bomb, then the Soviet Union (Russia) tested their own H-bomb in 1953.
