Now I HAVE become the destroyer of worlds, not AM become, stupid Oppenheimer 😑

Aww😊😢

@@shaynewheeler9249😮😊ww

Here’s another thought along the same lines. The first airplane flight took place on December 17th, 1903. The first human to walk on the moon happened on July 6th, 1969. A mere 66 years, hard to comprehend the jump in technological advancement

And today we talking biochemical warfare, nuclear war, and technology war tactics… from information to drones - with very little idea on how powerful these things really are.

We live in a Terrifying time good luck to all as a future unfolds

Yes, my grandmother’s generation! She was born in Poland in 1898 and passed in 2001, right after 9-11. That’s 103. She came on a ship with a paddle wheel and back up sails. They settled in New York and lived in a two room walk up. She saw the transition from horse to automobile, lived through two world wars, Korea, Vietnam, the Depression, saw the moon landings, the space shuttle, the internet, and 9-11. She was sharp until on September 22, she didn’t wake up. She slowly shut down over three hours and checked out.

How about a former slave living into the 1950s

So Ann, you are living in Los Angeles!

so what? you want a cookie or something?

@@monsterx3055 If it's true then it's an interesting fact. Why are you so condescending to a random person?

​@@thebronywiking exactly.

Spoke highly of the devil that cursed this planet with WMDs.

It has now arrived in Hollywood in 2023!

*Complete failure!* *Entertainment cannot come at the cost of hatered* Scene with reading the Bagavat Gita in the middle of a sex scene is definitely a cheap tactics to spread hatred towards particular sect of humanity - Hinduism and Hindus. The Gita is more of a philosophical text rather than a religious one but the intent of the maker seems religious. I don't have appreciation or review for any part of the movie be it acting, direction, cinematography, music etc as the intent is a failure. The makers should be ashamed of themselves for their narrowness of their mind.

​@@Flawpeacock564 You could have both books and You-Tube videos!!!

As well as any docs about the Magna Carte

Glad you enjoyed it!

HIS FIRST MISTAKE ( AND LAST ALSO ) WAS REQUIRING ANY SORT OF EXTERNAL VALIDATION : WHEN YOU ARE RIGHT , YOU ARE RIGHT . BUT I THINK IT GOT TO HIM , WHEN IT SHOULDNT HAVE , THAT LOWLY PEOPLE WANTED TO BRING HIM DOWN .... AFTER THE FACT . OTHERWISE HE WOULD STILL BE CHAIN - SMOKING AND WORKING ON ONE THING OR ANOTHER !!!! IF YOU GO BY WHAT ANYBODY ELSE THINKS , YOU WILL NOT MAKE IT TO WHERE YOU WANT TO GO ....🌅🌅

How are you doing. Perfectly said👍well you bear same name with someone i used to know in the state,Where are you from?

@@carolinetan6805 oh alright am from Orlando Florida but currently living in turkey for work.

Oppenheimer was in the right place at the right time and brought WWII to a successful close, saving hundreds of thousands of American military lives. He was a hero as far as I'm concerned!

Nothing heroic about atomic annihilation. I'm sure he regretted even taking part in making nuclear bombs. He knew that other countries would have that same power sooner or later. I would pay close attention to what's going on with Ukraine. I fear nuclear war is a lot closer than you could imagine.

@@dapperden4129 yes how horrible. The Ukraine is still toxic from Chernobyl. That nuclear stuff is horrible. Those people are horrible for doing this.

@@dapperden4129 Oppenheimer was thinking only of the scientific breakthrough this would make. After Trinity, he realized the real potential of the bomb. THat’s when he took a step back and realized he had created something devastating. But the scientific achievement that project created is truly remarkable. It took 40yrs, but finally common sense prevailed and nuclear weapons have been cut way back. The world has grown up a lot since then. Give it some credit.

@@iclite3656 Get over yourself. The political and military climate at that time was completely different than it is today. Study up on what was actually going on after Germany surrendered in ‘45. Japan was willing so sacrifice it’s entire country before surrendering. That is madness. Truman had no choice. The past is a foreign country, they do things different there.

Thanks! -Max H, media sourcer :)

​@@repentandbelieveinJesusChrist9 You are a little late to current World Events. It appears you did not get the memo? "Christianity" died in WWI, WWII, Korea, Vietnam (me U.S. Army 1969-1971), Gulf War I, 9/11, Iraq, Afghanistan, and now the Russian-Ukraine War under your fellow "Christian" Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All the Russians. Study the strange still photograph in the long "Voice Over" on "Remote Control Missiles and the Atom Bomb" in the last two minutes of the Film "The Best Years of Our Lives" (1946) and figure out why it is there through the connection between 1930's Hollywood Actress Carol Lombard and William Wyler's Wife Margaret Tallichet. Study the infamous "Call Back" letters-numbers correspondence values vs numbers on the lit board "Bingo Scene" in the VA Hospital in the Film "The Deer Hunter" (1978). Hint: the first value set you get will be "1859" but the call back is "BING" - not "BINGO" - so subtract the numerical value of "O" which is 15. 1859-15=1844. The other two years in the 19th Century you will get in the Scene are 1863 and 1892. Understand the profound Allegory of the Film in terms of Isaiah 25:6-7, Malachi 4:1, Daniel 12:1, and 2nd Peter 3:10. Stop the one handed reading to your "Messiah" Donald Trump and have this all figured out by July of 2042. Try to keep up! Good luck!

Moved about too much and didn't stick with one topic. Really, by the time he had succeeded as an academic, he really wasn't a top theoretical physicist. He might have qualified for a Nobel Peace prize had his efforts to get the weapons into a global framework that prevented proliferation and their use actually succeeded. But he was too marginalized to have that sort of influence.

Nobel Prizes are not given for political views. Hold on, sorry now they are. Obama got one for ...nothing.

The actual American way😢

@@hoobyhoo If you think this is bad, look at the history of the Soviet Union and current Russia. Mere suspicion of disloyalty will get you executed or sent to work camps in Siberia, where thousands were killed. The American way, is actually relatively benign compared to the norms throughout history and other contemporary nations in these matters.

@@wyskass861 thank you for making my point. "Benign" is not accurate. I prefer "infantile". I am a proud American before you get salty. God bless

@@hoobyhoo I'm wondering if you could say that you are a proud American in the face of a 78 y.o. Japanese who lost every one of his family in the bombing of Hiroshima. We hope that one day you'll understand why Americans are despised by everyone in the entire world: because of total lack of humility.

​@@PurreteHorrific as your loss is perhaps you should look to your own leaders who brought horror upon their people. None of this would have happened had Japan not been imperialist invaders.

It was an army of the most brilliant scientist in the US, that worked in the Manhattan project i.e., Richard Feynman Nobel laurate and many other Nobel laurates. their combined brain power exceeded that of the atomic bomb.

It's because Hollywood is fake

🎯!

👍

Glad to watch this documentary first. Going to see it this weekend

He is the instrument by God to aware of people of mass destruction weapon to change the new generation of our dying planet

I hope we will not find out in the near future...😮

Oppenheimer was psychopath

When you go from killing people to all life for centuries in a targeted area.. it’s definitely a common sense kinda warning all the governments should have understood. Nobody wins on a dead earth.

He changed the world! His reward the history books forever!

I'd disagree; without all people who contributed to it, many of them 1000 more able and gifted than he was there would have have been no atomic bomb, (and the Germans weren't actually that far off developing there own nuclear device independently anyway.) The credit that he's always given is American chauvinism at it' worst, but it was better than giving to bunch prominently German and predominantly Jewish refugees who did the real work the credit they properly deserved. Fortunately in terms of serious physics many of their names are rightly remembered because of their real and significant discoveries in physics and Oppenheimer is regarded as a bit of an, also ran.

@@Eris123451 Germany was light years away! Oppenheimer ran the show I think that’s good enough don’t you!

@@FernandoGon814 No I don't; he was a mediocre physicist and basically an overrated paper pusher. I've always though and I still do that Oppenheimer's reputation has always been massively exaggerated and for the reasons I've just explained. Fortunately the reputations of the people who did the real work have survived without being diminished or overshadowed by their association with him.

​@@Eris123451Los Alamos was cat wrangling at the highest level. Keeping that bunch of divas from killing each other should have earned him the Peace Prize.

It's unfortunate the US ostracized him after all he's done for this country. Goes to show how ungrateful mainstream media and politics can bring a good man down.

Not really impressive Oppenheimer was a but of a publicity stunt

I question his interest in Communist. Why? He didn't know Stalin was as much a maniatical murderer as Hitler?

If you're looking for a villain in the use of atomic bombs, look no further than the government of Japan. They were given the chance to surrender prior to the use of the atomic bombs and didn't value the lives of their own citizens - even after the equally destructive bombing of Toyko on March 9, 1949.

@@buckhorncortez to be fair, no nation would've taken the U.S. seriously prior to the bomb being dropped if they were told they had one. After the first bomb, Japan thought that was the only one and there was absolutely no way there were more bombs. Then the second bomb fell and Japan was told there was another and they believed the U.S. Now even if Japan knew about the bomb for a fact, I personally believe the first bomb still would've been dropped.

As if Hiroshima and Nagasaki were the death of innocence that WW2 provided. Dachau ring a bell? Balalae? Hell, even for WW2 bombing destruction the atomic bombs were small potatoes other than the device being novel....

You have answered your own question. Knowing it could be done means it should be done, by you, before anyone else. It's the equivalent to "Who draws their pistol first commands the outcome."

@@gorflunk Exactly. Debate the follies your "side" may have made in the atomic age, but it's still way better than relying on the wisdom of others

I wasn't aware that the statement was said to have been made immediately following the first test. The interview of which you speak is what I was familiar with.

@@brianroyster7510 I believe it's portrayed that way in the movie. I haven't seen it yet, but I have seen ppl saying he says it at Trinity.

Thank you! I’d see the interview years ago and I thought I was going crazy

That confused me too. This video claims he ‘never said that’ - but I too have seen the video footage of him saying it.

@@eileendover3938 I don't know when that interview of JRO was filmed, I assumed late 50's early 60's, but he definitely quoted the Bhagavad Gita in reference to the Manhattan project.

--O’ll rest my case (on this one!)

Did you work with him ? Know him ?

Prolific womanizer🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

@@alisyd5876 Such a gift comes with its burdens, I guess.

@shantishanti1949 Oppie? No, I just read the book. But I have met two Presidents and some titans of industry (tech). Steve Jobs was probably the best known for the "reality distortion field" in his presence. I never met Jobs, but I did a conference with Waz, and that was pretty cool. Gates, Allen, Cuban, Ellis, Walker...all nerds that instantly command a room, or a convention hall, wherever they go.

With Christopher Nolan directing, you know it’s gonna be really good . I can’t wait .

​@angusdog22 Can confirm it was very very good!

The Nobel can be awarded to groups of people, like the Los Alamos team, not just an individual

Love to hear a mention of the true discoverer of ‘atom splitting” Sir Ernest Rutherford

I need to hear it from an American preferably someone with a sound knowledge of science!!!

@@repnzlci5pgm720 As a footnote to my earlier comment: I have a Masters degree in nuclear engineering and worked on advanced fuel systems for light water reactors for 6 years, and am an American.

@@repnzlci5pgm720 an oversight

Maxwell died in 1879, but your point is well taken. Oppie also was the first one to recognize that Dirac's second answer to his equation implied antimatter.

Presumably, without the atomic bomb, the USAF could have continuously dropped conventional bombs all over Japan daily, while the US Navy blockaded the Japanese islands and starved the population into submission. Either way, lots of Japanese citizens would have died to get the surrender.

​@@cyclnvancouver8060 exactly. That is often overlooked by most people too.

Just glad the Americans got the bomb before Hitler or Japan, that would have been terrifying. Also those soldiers fighting in the Pacific were spared an invasion of Japan.

@@Viktors633 Neither Germany nor Japan were ever going to get the bomb. Using the bomb on Japan spared US soldiers from invading the islands. I quite support that use. But, as I said above, the US had a number of ways of inflicting significant pain and suffering on Japan and its people and all that would have resulted in lots of death and destruction until Japan surrendered.

@@cyclnvancouver8060 To be fair though, the allies only discovered near the end of the war that Germany or Japan were not even close to inventing the bomb. This certainly was a spur to the Americans at the time to win a race for survival as they saw it. Guy had a brilliant mind.

I listened to George Galloways uptake on Oppenheimers film,and how he mentioned it a must to go and see,this documentary has made up for not getting to see the film,well explained and documented,and yes I do believe he should have had more recognition,such as a Noble Prize.

He and his family paid a heavy price at the end of his own family!

Absolutely 💯 💯 💯 💯

I wonder what would be your opinion about him if he was working for the Japanese and those bombs were dropped in Washington and Newyork instead.

@@mohammedfathi3592 It would have cost many young troops to invade Japan. He saved hundreds of thousands of troops. What else would you have Truman do? I disagree with some super powers such as Israel it's unnecessary when they have so many countries backing them and not Palestine, the underdogs. New York was hit with a mass killing(9/11). Does that please you? Oppenheimer disagreed with the second bomb according to this documentary. He wanted Germany hit with the nuke,that wasn't his choice to make. The Japanese did start with Pearl Harbor, another mass killing. America must defend herself. Put 9/11 and PH together you have thousands dead. Thank God you're not president.

@@JeffBezos-pb1zv They wiped out hundreds of thousands of innocent civilians in the absolute worst way imaginable, don't you have a heart?

Well said!

Very well said

Of course, since he was brilliant, courageous and loved this country, he has to be cancelled. Mmmm. Sounds familiar, ain't it?!🤣🤣🤣🤣😑😑😑🤬🤬😤

​@cynthiagonzalez658 yes.. Tesla

Good job! Both with your "arrogant naivete," the recognition of it, and your contributions to the Cold War! (We won it!) UCB Physics 1990.

Building a scellator for fusion power is the next undertaking!

True, but lets bear in mind; scientists theorising phenomenons, although the invasion and creativity goes to those who make it practically to happen - the engineers. He was a scientist and not an engineer, but run a good team of very capable people. He did more like a chief design kind of job. He could probably obtain a title for one of the best developer project award in the world.

@@simongodfrey866 I'm a biased engineer as well, 😉, and that's absolutely true, but I'll admit it's a marriage and partnership that couldn't have succeeded without the other. I think many don't get the recognition deserved because the spotlight is only so big, but I'm glad documentaries like this point out how many minds went into unlocking the Atom (and all modern scientific knowledge really) and I hope no one is idolized over another, not even Einstein and Oppenheimer.

@@dp5475 I am totally agreed with you.

@ BlueJeanBaby wow I never heard about that

Yes , still high levels still at Hanford .

The dead don’t care about awards

@@jacobjorgenson9285 …and me the living cares…that he gets the award..

The set him up…he seen it coming but couldn’t stop it. America wanted power so bad

… and soon enough after America’s H-bomb, Sakharov and friends had independently developed one as well. If the Soviets had won that particular tech race too, it would have been much more strategically significant than their lead in the early space race.

Somehow I never got the feeling, having grown up in the shadow of the A and H bombs, Oppie was all that concerned really to a) openly denounce the entire project enough to completely walk away putting off development a good 10 years, maybe, b) name the names of those pushing and paying for this hideous Frankenstein's monster even Hitler, the perpetual bad guy, banned development, c) condemn the entire war as being Jewish which it and its predecessor and the Napoleonic wars were as well.

It should be obvious to all by now that politicians are the real menace.

You mean the movie? 😂

​@@LiquidfirePUA...I wish I did mean just the movie ...The Manhattan Project lasted 5 years, officially from June '42 to August '47...We are well within the time frame of that 80th anniversary, as is the latest movie, the events it depicts, the development of the bomb, dropping it, and it's aftermath...As for the Nuclear Era we are all still living in...this is a work in progress with a still very unpredictable ending...💥

​@@alexanderkarayannis6425And it must be clear, that Hitler was working on the same technology, as reported to the US by Albert Einstein. Had he succeeded, God only knows what life would be like today throughout the entire world.

Yes, the assignment of blame is the American way. I found your comment intriguing.

Not so.much blame as fact of cause and effect. Responsibility

1. Hitler didn't commit suicide. 2. Japan was prepared to surrender.

One of many jewish monsters

Oppy was one of the top half-dozen or so of the top scientists in the Manhattan Engineer District who signed a letter on June 15, 1945 who recommended the use of the A-bomb on Japan. Even he recognized the need of this weapon to save millions of lives (on both sides) that would've resulted from a US land invasion of Japan. The Bomb also helped speed up Japan's unconditional surrender to America, as opposed to letting the Russians move into the North, creating a divided country, similar to Korea. Incidentally, a significant bit of trivia: a 70-yr delta from that date of that letter, to June 15, 2015, is when a Mr. DJT came down the golden escalator!!

@@hyliedoobius5114 yes I agree wholeheartedly that the bomb needed to be used. Japan would never have given up and millions of lives would have been lost.

I sometimes regret I was even born, and if that had been the case, I would not have been able to regret the things I did not do, as well as the things I did!😊

But the most intelligent men don't waste their time in REGRET , but move into the future , even if it does NOT INCLUDE THEM ... 🌅🌅

Well said!!! They disrespected him to the highest level.

He Served the United State doing Evil to other people, that’s not how humanity should work , you’re an evil human being

Many American lives were saved.

Bwwahaha! He only made our lives more fearful. Oppie deserves to have his name next to other infamous mass murders as Trotsky, Lenin, Stalin, Mao, Churchill, Rothschild, Rockefeller, Eisenhower, LeMay, Truman, FDR, the Crown.

I agree that he should have been awarded a Nobel Prize. The fact he was chosen to oversee the program speaks volumes for his credibility

no one is gonna fire off a nuke. mutual destruction. most people want to life, want their family to live, want their country to not be taken off the face of the earth.

We are in the beginning stages of world war 3. Give it some time, the war is going to spread outside of Ukraine.

They deserved everything they got for being barbaric conquerors with no common logic whatsoever (as in kamakazis) - THANK GOD! We settled them down or we'd all be speaking Japanese right now!!..! NO THANK YOU!!

Good Point. Berlin escaped narrowly but I agree that Allies should have given more time to Japan to surrender instead of dropping the second Nuke on Nagasaki. MacArthur wanted to use Nukes in Korea war against China/Russia as they were not nuclear powers at that time and the North/South Korea stalemate continues to this day.

At least he was on the ‘right’ side.

A necessary evil. Imagine if nothing was done and Nazi Germany had this weapon. The world would not have been safe. Evil prevails when good men fail to act.

Saved there lives

Yeah because killing everything in a city is bad only if you are the enemy, right?

​@@simoklownz2267Woe to the vanquished!!

@@simoklownz2267 how are they more saveable than others who were killed in WWII? there are some people in power who doesn't understand any negotiations. like Putler... only overpowering them makes them quit murder for no reason. you have to inprison or kill serial killers, there is no other way.

Oppeimer

So?

Atomic energy wasn't invented, it was discovered.

INTERESTING IS A FUKKKKK WORD

Perhaps Oppenheimer's greatest achievement was his ability to "manage" the multitude of processes necessary to produce a bomb, something that no individual alone would have been possible. Thus, the sum of the parts was infinitely more important then the individual parts.

I would caution us all against glorifying it. We should not use our reasoning abilities to make weapons and to destroy. That is, in essence, the real “black magic” or “witchcraft” out there. Reason should be utilized ethically. Saying “we need to built this hellish device because the enemy is killing people” only seems logically valid if you are layers deep into illusion and moral relativism, far from non-dual Truth (Logos/Theos).
