  • The profound moment when science met conscience. Step into the mind of the excellent physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer, who spoke these haunting words after witnessing the first successful test of the atomic bomb.

    In a 1965 television broadcast discussing the aftermath of the Trinity Test, J. Robert Oppenheimer said, "We knew the world would not be the same. A few people laughed, a few people cried. Most people were silent." Recalling a verse from the Hindu scripture, the Bhagavad-Gita, where Vishnu assumes his multi-armed form to impress upon the price the gravity of his duty, stating, "Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds. I suppose we all thought that, one way or another."
    The quote derives from the Bhagavad Gita, an ancient Hindu text containing 700 verses, dating back to the first millennium BCE. The scripture revolves around a conversation between Prince Arjuna and Lord Krishna, an incarnation o the deity Vishnu. Arjuna grapples with reluctance to engage in a concept without an exact English equivalent. At one juncture in the scripture, Arjuna implores Krishna to reveal his divine form, often described as a "multi-armed form."
    One translation of this moment in the text portrays what Arjuna witnesses as follows: "If hundreds of thousands of suns rose up at once into the sky, they might resemble the effulgence of the Supreme Person in that universal form."
    This vision of the suns going up into the sky helps understand why it may create thoughts of witnessing a nuclear explosion.

      Watching "Oppenheimer" was a depressing experience for me. Even after years of studying history, the moral quandaries and ethical dilemmas felt too impossible to glean any kind of good out of it. When they talked about that worst-case scenario where the entire atmosphere would ignite, I ended up leaving the cinema wishing that that outcome had happened back in 1944 and just made an end of us for good and all. It felt preferable to the present we're currently living in.

      @gentlefires 4 роки тому +384

      @@duydo7614 Yeah I know. He quotes from the Hindu sacred text, the Bhagavad-Gita. But the context in which he says this quote is important. Its original meaning is different. The scripture is about a warrior prince, Arjuna, and Lord Krishna, an incarnation of Vishnu. Arjuna seeks advice from Krishna as he is torn if he should go into battle against an army comprised of friends and family, to which Krishna responds - transforming into his collosal true from - with what Oppenheimer is quoting here. But Sanskrit scripture is really tricky to translate, and this isn't the only way to translate it. Kirshna teaches Arjuna the philosophy of Dharma, which is the "holy duty". And the word death, can also be translated into "world-destroying time". It's complicated to explain because you have to get into Hindu beliefs of life and death. It's a whole thing. However the meaning Oppenheimer gives to this quote is a lot more literal. This is another quote from him, after the Trinity Test:
      "In some sort of crude sense which no vulgarity, no humour, no overstatements can quite extinguish, the physicists have known sin, and this is a knowledge which they cannot lose.”
      It's obvious the burden he was carrying at seeing his creation be used to eradicate innocent lives.

    No one can deny the fact that the number of people died in Japan cannot be justified and it's nerve wrecking to think about what those people would have gone through but seeing the extent of the atomic bomb in action, every nation thinks twice to rage a war. In a way, he did end all war in a way. It takes a lot of courage to go through that kind of emotional damage and public humiliation and still take the responsibility of his actions. Respect to Oppenheimer and all the scientists that were passionate enough.

      It absolutely can be justified, and to say it can't displays a total misunderstanding of the Japanese empire in that period. The alternative to the nukes was a full on land invasion, which strategists at the time estimated millions of people on both sides would die in. American soldiers, Japanese soldiers, and Japanese civilians. At the time, the Japanese military was training women and children how to make and use improvised weapons such as spears in order to kill as many GIs as possible. The Japanese didn't surrender, ever. They hoped to die for the emperor. They fought to the very last man, and booby trapped their own bodies to take out soldiers after death. Dropping the nukes was the most humane way to end the war.
      After the first bomb was dropped, there was talk about surrender in the Japanese government. This was met with a full military coup consisting of nearly half of the military, with the purpose of continuing in with the war. Hirohitos unconditional surrender took place secretly, on a secret location, at a secret time, because of this.
      If you don't think that the nuke was justified, ask yourself why it took a second bomb for them to surrender?

Oppenheimer, as a Jew, was probably pretty unnerved seeing as his people were being genocided at the time. What’s more, any effort to be made to stop Hitler developing his *own* nuclear weaponry was a prime objective, as you typically don’t want genocidal dictators to have access to weapons of mass destruction.
      It wasn’t until Hitler unalived himself, and they had already sunk billions of dollars into development, that Truman ultimately decided to drop the bombs on Japan. But it’s not like he had the capacity to say “hey guys Hitler is dead we can stop production now” and the US government was going to go “oh okay!”

      Tbh he wasnt the originator of the bomb. It were the refugee scientists from Europe that had the foresight and saw the consequences of splitting the atom. And they also brought the theory and were instrumental in finding out the way to do it before the Nazi's could.
      Oppenheimer was a scientist but he wasnt a keyplayer in that aspect of making the bomb. He was the link between the scientists and the brass/politics being able to talk to both... overseeing the project, getting resources, manpower. Etc
      He did feel some type of way about the bomb though...having doubts. I think he lost his position also cause his criticism..But that bomb would've been build without him also. Sooner or later.

The physics theory for making this possible were there since einstein and they were well known around the world. Any country with enough money, ressources and time could have developed the atomic bomb. Actually the first to split uranium atoms were 3 german chemists in berlin. But there are still technical difficulties to make it a weapon. Einstein heard about this and send a warning letter to president roosevelt. This lead to the manhatten project, because they feared germany might build the bomb before them. Germany was far from building a functioning one, but with more time, they probably would have succeeded in doing so.

So he clearly knew that what he did was absolutley nessesary by reffering to that line from the gita, even tough knowing that the device he build with his own hands killed so many people was probably still haunting him to some extent he knew it was a good thing to save more lives in the long run.
