Actually a better way would be to require that everyone build the project, but for every instance where the project is built, te next project is lowered in cost by a 1/3 or more depending on map size.

I really like this idea. Makes more sense and fits well in today's world.
Iran can't make nukes just because the US did the Manhattan Project some 60 years ago. They had to develop their own project.
I agree with the Diplomatic impact of possessing Nuclear Weapons...but like the Apollo program you still need to build the space ship so no free nukePosted by GIDS888:

You need Fission and Rocketry to build Nukes. If you get them first, the AI is way behind still by the time you build the MP and actual ICBM's.
I used to like it in days of old when getting Nukes made you the Big Dog and all the AI's instantly LIKED you better. With Diplomacy and Espionage so well developed in the current game, it would make getting the MP first more sense.
Remember "My words are backed by Nuclear Weapons!" Happy Days!
One free ICBM would suffice!

Its because once you have the technology bombs are not that hard to make. You need the materials, the science and the funding. Just as you do ingame.
Of course the first time someone comes up with the idea it is complicated, but once the idea is there everyone can come to the conclusion. You can get info on how to make nukes on the net, but of course you cannot make them!!
As others have pointed out, its a pandora box. You have unleashed the idea of nukes. Everyone who wants one still has to have the resources and technology.

I think its perfect as it is and makes you think twice about creating this monster, just as the Guys and governments who made it in the first place thought twice about it.
I love the way it works ingame. In its creation and use causing global warming. I think people that have a problem with it want a consequence free game, just as some people hate the penalty for not running emancipation etc.
Each to his own!

But on the other hand there is a big difference between building "the bomb" for the first time and just building bombs after someone else has proven it works and went and done it already.
