    The splitting of the atom was only referenced in a single line in that movie and it wasn’t Oppenheimer who did it. Then Fermi’s first nuclear reactor was only briefly mentioned in one scene. Oppenheimer developed the nuclear bomb specifically.

      So you clearly missed the point of the exercise, thank you for debating all the minutia of my joke to me.

      Have a great day!

        The punchline of your joke is that the answer is Oppenheimer, but it isn’t. Your joke just doesn’t make sense lol

        Oh well sure lol.

        But if you want to isolate “The moment nuclear technology became known to man”, the splitting of the atom or the reactor that was built before the atom bomb are probably what you’re going to go with.
