Episode 1: Guilt

Chemist Otto Hahn and Physicist Lise Meitner’s discovery of nuclear fission changed the world forever. But their story is deeply complex, featuring the dangerous politics of Nazi Germany, the awarding of just one Nobel prize, and the most dangerous weapons the human race has ever known.
