Technological developments during the war were not limited to military advancements. The invention of rudimentary military rockets during the war was refined during the late war and 1950s allowing for the creation of various space programs throughout the world. The advent of nuclear fission not only provided the great powers with a weapon of unimaginable destructiveness, but it also provided the ability to tap into nearly unlimited nuclear power for civilian applications. Logistical concerns of shipping supplies to various far-flung combat theaters lead to the rapid advancement of refrigeration technology, and by the end of the war refrigerators were readily available for civilian consumption and were in most homes. The development of the jet for military applications soon lead to very early civilian jetliners entering rotation by the war's end. The race to motorize and mechanize lead to major advancements in automobile technology, making them easier to construct, faster, more reliable, and cheaper for civilian consumers. | Technological developments during the war were not limited to military advancements.
