Robert J. Oppenheimer was an American theoretical physicist and the scientific director of the Manhattan Project during World War II, where he played a crucial role in developing the first nuclear weapons. Often referred to as the 'father of the atomic bomb,' Oppenheimer's legacy is marked by the ethical dilemmas surrounding nuclear energy and its implications for humanity.
