Who is Oppenheimer? The controversial man behind the atomic bomb. Born in 1904, Oppenheimer was a child prodigy who excelled in physics and other fields. He played a pivotal role in the Manhattan Project, overseeing the development of the atomic bomb. The successful test of the bomb in 1945 marked a turning point in history. The U.S. dropped atomic bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in August 1945, leading to widespread devastation and loss of life. Oppenheimer, while initially proud of the achievement, soon became troubled by the consequences and advocated for nuclear deterrence. He opposed the development of a more powerful hydrogen bomb and faced political backlash during the Cold War's Red Scare. Oppenheimer spent the remainder of his life advocating for ethical uses of nuclear technology and working to prevent nuclear proliferation.
Despite his pivotal role in creating the atomic bomb, he grappled with the moral implications of his work and remained a complex and influential figure in the history of science and ethics.
