Why Oppenheimer Said, "Now I am Death, the Destroyer of Worlds"?
Christopher Nolan’s new film Oppenheimer is a gripping biopic about Robert J. Oppenheimer, the man primarily behind the creation of the atomic bomb. So of course, the film features his most famous quote. As Oppenheimer recalled in a 1965 NBC News documentary called The Decision to Drop the Bomb, he thought of Hindu scripture while watching the first-ever atomic bomb explode during the Trinity Test: “Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.”
