Yeah itās really sad that heās on the same list as the dictators who subjugated his country and his people š
The hydrogen bomb would have been built anyway; the Soviets were already working on it. Killing a physicist, no matter how politically outspoken and controversial he was, would have changed nothing.
Why is Ede on here and not M*ngele?

So I mentioned to my sister that it's a running joke on tumblr that Oppie eats rocks...
Without missing a beat she said "that's because Teller fed them all the marbles they used to measure plutonium and uranium and they all got used to it". She then proceeded to explain how he stole and attempted to turn Feynman's bongos into something else (I can't remember) but ultimately failed.
Mind you she's not at all into the whole Manhattan project as I am, so I think, just think, that she might be a bit fed up w my obsession with this lot.

You watched Christopher Nolan's "Oppenheimer" and now want to learn more about some of the scientists that were involved and the history of the Manhattan Project? Then I recommend "Pandora's Keepers" by Brian VanDeMark. The book takes a closer look at not just J. Robert Oppenheimer, but also Hans Bethe, Niels Bohr, Arthur Compton, Enrico Fermi, Ernest Lawrence, Isidor Isaac Rabi, Leo Szilard and Edward Teller. The book is a history book more so than a science book, most of the scientific explanations mentioned around the making of the bomb, aren't too complex to understand for readers who aren't experts on the matter.

'Christopher Nolan has a knack for wrangling impressive ensemble casts for his films, but he really outdid himself with his 3-hour historical epic Oppenheimer. Even if the World War II biopic didnāt include the frequent Nolan collaborator Michael Caine, the stacked ensemble is filled with a terrific ensemble of veteran Hollywood stars, Academy Award-winning performers, underrated character actors, relative unknowns, and a few former box office titans that have seemingly disappeared over the last decade or so. It wasnāt that long ago that Josh Hartnett was the marquee lead of films like Lucky Number Slevin and Black Hawk Down, but his star power has seemingly evaporated, as some actors can only maintain the same level of success for so long. However, Hartnett has always been a more interesting and complicated actor than the roles that he was given at the beginning of his career. Hartnett isnāt just in the middle of a major comeback; he basically steals Oppenheimer with one of the most nuanced supporting performances.
Why Is 'Oppenheimer's Ernest Lawrence So Important?
Oppenheimer is told in non-chronological order, in what has become a hallmark of nearly all of Nolanās films. While Hartnett doesnāt play a significant role in the black-and-white sections that show the confirmation hearings for Lewis Strauss (Robert Downey Jr.), he is instrumental within the main storyline focused on J. Robert Oppenheimerās (Cillian Murphy) studies at the University of California in Berkeley, where he first conceived of much of the technology that ended up becoming critical within the Manhattan Project. The sequences in Berkeley arenāt just where Oppenheimer unlocks part of his genius, but also where he falls in love with his second wife Kitty (Emily Blunt), and makes a community of friends for the first time. It is during this period that he works hand-in-hand with Hartnettās depiction of Ernest Lawrence; having an outsiderās perspective on Oppenheimerās work was necessary for this sequence to function.
Ernest Lawrence was an incredibly influential figure in Oppenheimerās life. While heās not someone that Oppenheimer often looks up to and idolizes like Neils Bohr (Kenneth Branagh) or Albert Einstein (Tom Conti), Lawrence represents the sort of man that Oppenheimer could never really become. Hartnett depicts Lawrence as a man of great importance, intelligence, and class that also has a relatively normal social life and shows an ability to adjust to the stresses within his life. Lawrence encourages Oppenheimer to find a balance within his work, but it becomes obvious that itās not possible for someone with his capacity for genius. It creates an odd tension between them; Lawrence feels both resentful and sympathetic for his friend. Oppenheimerās inability to simply āturn offā his brain and focus on something other than his work may end up making him more historically important than Lawrence, but it negates any sense of accomplishment or happiness he may feel.
Josh Hartnett does some really outstanding subtle work with his performance, as thereās an interesting dichotomy to Lawrenceās feelings about Oppenheimer. Heās not resentful, as he and Oppenheimer are able to get along and share much in common due to their shared experience in nuclear research. Lawrence is someone who can communicate with Oppenheimer on an intellectual level about the groundbreaking studies that are being done, but heās not capable of reaching the same next-level conclusions. Lawrence is well-educated and knows what heās talking about, but also acknowledges that itās not his name that the world will remember. It was almost a bit of reflective acting on Hartnettās part as if he was acknowledging that he was no longer the same star who had led Pearl Harbor to its box-office success two decades prior.
Ernest Lawrence Is Important to the Politics of 'Oppenheimer'
Christopher Nolan isnāt necessarily known as a āpolitical filmmaker,ā but while his films arenāt necessarily as overt as the work of directors like Oliver Stone or Spike Lee, there are strong anti-war, anti-escalation themes in The Dark Knight, Dunkirk, and Tenet. Oppenheimer is definitely Nolanās most overtly political work to date, and Lawrence is instrumental in unpacking the filmās complex understanding (and criticism) of the decisions that Oppenheimer made on behalf of his country during his lifetime. At first, Oppenheimerās relationship with Jean Tatlock (Florence Pugh) is nothing more than a passionate romantic affair, but it's Lawrence who explains the danger that being involved with the socialist political movement at the time that they are in. Lawrence has his personal feelings about the rising Communist movement, but he worries that Oppenheimerās mind could be distracted when heās working on studies that could literally change the way that mankind observes the world.
The political differences between Lawrence and Oppenheimer are fascinating, and Hartnett does a great job of showing Lawrenceās conviction in his belief and handling the dense political dialogue. Itās fascinating that Lawrenceās political beliefs arenāt delved into that deeply other than his expressed desire to keep all discussions about the socialist movement out of the classroom. Lawrence tells Oppenheimer that he considered himself a patriot, but he also wants the University to be an institute of science, and not a hangout spot for a potentially dangerous movement to begin. He and Oppenheimer begin to grow further apart as a result of this, but they still share a mutual understanding of which events transcend their own personal beliefs. Both men react with the same surprise and fear when news of Adolf Hitlerās invasion of Poland breaks.
Josh Hartnett does a great job of showing Lawrenceās empathy for Oppenheimer. While he understands that a traditional celebration isnāt necessarily something that Oppenheimer would enjoy, thereās a friendliness between the two men that continues after General Leslie Groves (Matt Damon) whisks him away to work on the Manhattan Project. Lawrence refuses to report incriminating evidence on Oppenheimer during the governmentās investigation, and the two are able to shake hands at the end of the film. Thatās more than Oppenheimer can say about Edward Teller (Benny Safdie), whose pro-nuclear beliefs created too much of a divide between them.
Josh Hartnett is in the midst of a much-needed comeback, and itās great to see that Oppenheimer gave him such a nuanced role to execute. While it may have taken a while for him to finally get the chance to work with Nolan, his performance is one that is essential to show what made Oppenheimer tick on both an intellectual and personal level.'

As much as I absolutely love Oppenheimer (2023) it fails to portray just how absolutely batshit insane Edward Teller was. He genuinely believed we should nuke the moon.

MPGC vol.1
MPGC = Manhattan Project Group Chats. The official name in the files is "Just Manchattin" but nobody says this.
Basically the premise is "what if the Manhattan Project scientists (and Barbie because I first thought of the idea during the Barbenheimer thing) had a Discord server?"
So, ten people on an obscure pokemon fansite enjoyed this and I guess you guys should too.
I hope you enjoy the first ever part and LMK what you want to see because I may do that in the future.
#general-groves
BarbieGirl started the chat
BarbieGirl renamed the chat to #Physics
BarbieGirl invited DestroyerOfWorlds, InfamousTeller, ErnestLawrence, and 8 others to the chat
BarbieGirl: k i think this works now. everybody type smth
InfamousTeller: OK HERE GOES
InfamousTeller: I AM THE INFAMOUS EDWARD TELLER!!!!!!!!!!!!!
DestroyerOfWorlds: Edward if ur gonna be dis way then get out
InfamousTeller: OPPIE WHY U DO DIS
BarbieGirl: omg stop fighting i made this so we can talk physics in a calm and civil manner
ErnestLawrence: why am i here
InfamousTeller: JOIN ME
DestroyerOfWorlds: I hate u
BarbieGirl: alr that's it
*BarbieGirl has muted DestroyerOfWorlds and InfamousTeller for 24 hours*
