Ernest Rutherford (August 30, 1871 – October 19, 1937) was a human chemist and nuclear physicist. Rutherford was born in Brightwater, New Zealand. He developed the standard model of the atom as a nucleus orbited by electrons and pioneered the splitting of the atom. Rutherford received the 1908 Nobel Prize for chemistry. He died in Cambridge, England, of complications from an umbilical hernia. In 2258, in an alternate reality, James T. Kirk named Rutherford among the famous physicists of the past.

- Ernest Rutherford, 1st Baron Rutherford of Nelson OM, FRS (30 August 1871 – 19 October 1937) was a New Zealand-born British born physicist and chemist, renown for his work in particle physics and his strange desire to live in New Zealand. Rutherford successfully rigged the Nobel Prize on at least one occasion for his work on radioactivity, and was an inspiration for the atom bomb and possibly was the root of World War II as a whole.

- Ernest Rutherford, 1st Baron Rutherford of Nelson OM, FRS (30 August 1871 – 19 October 1937) was a New Zealand-born British born physicist and chemist, renown for his work in particle physics and his strange desire to live in New Zealand. Rutherford successfully rigged the Nobel Prize on at least one occasion for his work on radioactivity, and was an inspiration for the atom bomb and possibly was the root of World War II as a whole. He not only discovered radioactivity, which was later added to the particle physics text book. But he stole the textbook, ripped it up and re-wrote insisting his theories on atoms mainly being empty space were true. Of course nobody paid the slightest bit of notice.
