quantum gravity may introduce new phenomena related to the behavior of matter and energy. For example, it is hypothesized that quantum gravity effects could lead to violations of certain symmetries or the emergence of new particles or forces, or a method of propulsion.
"Quantum gravity" doesn't even exist as a coherently defined theory yet, there are numerous incomplete models full of flaws, none of which accurately model physics or make predictions well enough to be useful. It certainly isn't in the same weight class of provable science (as in we already build technology that depends on it, and wouldn't work if it wasn't valid) as quantum mechanics, despite sharing the word "quantum."
..no? The Manhattan project was only possible because the science behind nuclear physics was well established enough that its consequences became obvious. Again, as I said earlier, as a result of work that built upon and validated earlier work. You don't even get to the point of building an atomic bomb without thoroughly understanding the principles - and all of those principles were in line with physics as it was understood at the time. Building the bomb was an issue of technology and resources, not exotic, unproven science.
So I guess there was never withheld science in the Manhattan project - correct? And those spies leaking details to the soviets, why bother - it's common knowledge - right?
United States is doing the same thing with the Quantum age. Do you think the military is waiting around for mainstream science to protect its economy and military from quantum computers? No. They are pioneering it, in secret.

Yes, the science was common knowledge. Berlin scientists first split the uranium atom four years before the Manhattan project even took place. It was common enough that science fiction writers of the time wrote stories about atomic bombs before any bombs were ever built, through extrapolation from established science alone, and Kodak was able to deduce the US was working on an atomic bomb because the radiation from testing fogged up their film stock. That's why there was a race on to be the first to a working implementation of that science, and a working implementation was what the Soviets were interested in. I can guarantee you Soviet scientists already knew what a chain reaction was.
Stop acting like you know what you're talking about, the more you comment the more obvious it is that you don't.
