Eighty-five years ago today, chemists Glenn Seaborg, Joseph Kennedy, and Arthur Wahl (continuing work by physicist Edwin McMillan) first produced element 94 (plutonium) in the 60-inch cyclotron at UC Berkeley. Exactly 1,700 days later, “Fat Man”—fueled by 13.6 lbs. of Pu-239— destroyed Nagasaki.
![A color photograph of two brass plaques mounted on a wall. The first reads:
PLUTONIUM
Element 94
Was discovered in this room in February 1941 [sic] by G.T. Seaborg, E.T. McMillan, A.C. Wahl, and J.W. Kennedy
[NOTE: Seaborg and his team chemically identified and confirmed the discovery of plutonium, and discovered plutonium-239, on the night of February 23-24, 1941. But the as yet unnamed element 94 (specifically the isotope plutonium-238) was first produced by bombarding uranium with deuterons in the 60-inch cyclotron at Berkeley on December 14, 1940.]
The second plaque reads:
