Father of Atomic Bomb -- J. Robert Oppenheimer
J. Robert Oppenheimer was a brilliant physicist who helped to create the atomic bomb. He was also a complex and contradictory figure who later spoke out against the development of nuclear weapons. His legacy continues to be debated today.
Oppenheimer was born in New York City in 1904 and attended Harvard University, where he earned his bachelor's degree in physics in 1925. After graduating, he went to Europe to study at the University of Cambridge and the University of Göttingen. In 1929, he returned to the United States and joined the faculty of the University of California, Berkeley.
In 1942, Oppenheimer was recruited to lead the Manhattan Project, a secret U.S. government program to develop the atomic bomb. He assembled a team of the best scientists in the world, and they worked tirelessly to create a weapon that could end the war.
The first atomic bomb was tested in 1945, and the war ended shortly thereafter. Oppenheimer was deeply troubled by the use of the bombs, and he later spoke out against the development of nuclear weapons. He died in 1967.
Oppenheimer was a complex and contradictory figure, but he was also one of the most important scientists of the 20th century. He helped to create the atomic bomb, but he also warned against its use. He was a man of great intellect and great passion, and his legacy continues to be debated today.
