As a scientist ,white badge, in 1945 in Los Alamos, I find little in the series that resembles Los Alamos or the Manhattan project I knew. . The road to Los Alamos was paved and the directions given me in Santa Fe were very clear and easy to follow. however the last part of the road was steep and winding up the side of the mesa. We were never prisoners. Many times I drove to Santa Fe, nearby Indian pueblos, or for hikes without interference of any kind. The idea of plutonium samples arriving in a taxi in a crate of oranges is absurd.. The sample would not come from the Met (Metallurgical lab in Chicago,but from the graphite reactor in Oak Ridge. The scientific staff I saw at Los Alamos was a spirited team,led by an inspiring,knowledgeable, and thoughtful leader, Robert Oppenheimer.The security people I saw were tough but respectful of science and the staff. There were many more discordance's in this soap opera.
