Well‚ "wrong" isn’t exactly accurate—incomplete or preliminary are better terms. The Bohr model was an essential step toward an accurate theory of atomic structure‚ which required the development of quantum mechanics in the 1920s. Even in its preliminary state‚ the model is good enough for many calculations
