Robert Oppenheimer - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "At the Trinity test in New Mexico, where his Los Alamos team first tested the bomb, Oppenheimer famously quoted from 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 am become Death, the destroyer of worlds.'"
