(1) said it would set the atmosphere on fire and possibly destroy the world. Ironically, (2) said it wouldn’t work at all. (3) came closest and won it in the end. What? also, who are (1), (2) and (3)?

Answer:
Enrico Fermi (1) started a betting pool on the outcome of the Trinity nuke test. Oppenheimer (2) thought it wouldn’t work. Isidor Isaac Rabi (3) won with his guess of 20 Kilotons being the closest.

fermi, oppenheimer and rabi, and their bet on the yield of the first a-bomb test – rabi’s estimate of 18 kilotons of tnt came closest.

1 – Enrico Fermi
2 – Robert Oppenheimer
Thermonuclear Explosion Test

The three are Enrico Fermi (1), J Robert Oppenheimer (2) and Isidor Rabi(3). The scientists working on the Trinity test for the atom bomb set up a betting pool for the results of the test, with predictions ranging from total dud to incineration of the planet. Rabi’s guess of 18 kilotons of TNT was closest to the actual 20, and he won the pool.

A bunch of scientists set up a betting pool to predict how much energy would the first atomic explosion produce. Isidor Rabi won with his guess of 18K MT of TNT, which was close enough to the actual 20K.
1 – Fermi
2 – Oppenheimer
3 – Rabi

A one dollar bet about the yield of the first atom bomb test.
1- Enrico Fermi
2- Julius Robert Oppen
3- Isidor Isaac (”I. I.”) Rabi
Rabi won the bet with a guess of 18 kilotons.

the first atom bomb. 2 is Oppenheimer.

“It” is the atom bomb
(1) is Enrico Fermi
(2) is Robert Oppenheimer
I don’t know who 3 is

Enrico\\\\\\\’s fermi\\\\\\\’s wager just before the trinity test on the outcome of the test. 2 is Robert Oppenheimer. 3. ummm George Kistiyakovsky??

These were the bets placed by Enrico Fermi(1), Robert Oppenheimer(2) and Isidor Isaac Rabi(3) about what would happen when the Trinity explosion happened. Rabi obviously won.
