Julius Robert Oppenheimer(April 22, 1904 – February 18, 1967) was an American theoretical physicist and professor of physics at the University of California, Berkeley. As the wartime head of the Los Alamos Laboratory, Oppenheimer is among those who are called the "father of the atomic bomb" for their role in the Manhattan Project, the World War II project that developed the first nuclear weapons used in the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The first atomic bomb was detonated on July 16, 1945, in the Trinity test in New Mexico; Oppenheimer remarked later that it brought to mind words from the Bhagavad Gita: "Now I am become Death, the destroyer of worlds."

In the early 1950s, he was accused of being a communist. Upon detonation of the first atomic bomb, Oppenheimer recalled a quote from the Indian sacred text, the Bhagavad Gita: "If the radiance of a thousand suns were to burst at once into the sky, that would be like the splendor of the mighty one. Now I become Death, the destroyer of worlds."

Now I become Death, the destroyer of worlds." In 1957, Irina Spalko mentioned Oppenheimer as part of America's superpower status through harnessing the atom for warfare, and then claimed that with the powers of the crystal skulls, she could do the same with psychic warfare for the Soviet Union.
