Why has the movie 'Oppenheimer', which is a blockbuster, become a topic of discussion for scientists around the world?

Film director Christopher Nolan's biographical thriller movie 'Oppenheimer' shows that the world could have ended during the Trinity Test. But was this possible? The film is at the forefront of the race for awards in various categories at the upcoming Oscar Awards ceremony. The film has been nominated in 13 major categories.

The film has proved to be a blockbuster. The audience liked this movie more than Marvel movies. This is Nolan's third-biggest hit movie. Before this, the second and third movies of his Batman series were blockbusters. 'Oppenheimer' is a three-hour movie that keeps the audience captivated. It has heavy dialogue. The audience never gets bored anywhere in the film. There are very few action scenes in it. Film physicist J. Focuses on the life of Robert Oppenheimer. Hymer invented the world's first atomic bomb, which was dropped on the two Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. After this, the Second World War ended. This movie highlights the moral side of the actions of scientist Oppenheimer.

  After seeing this, many discussions started on this topic among the people. Astronomer Neil deGrasse Tyson and theoretical physicist Brian Greene were recently seen discussing this movie on a YouTube channel 'Star Talk'. One of the points they discussed was the possibility of the atmosphere burning up due to the Trinity Test (a nuclear test conducted by America) and the world being destroyed as a result. This type of apprehension has also been hinted at in the movie. There is a scene in which the character played by actor Matt Damon is seen talking to Oppenheimer about this.

The character of Oppenheimer is played by Cillian Murphy. The question arises as to why both scientists gave so much importance to the possibility of burning the atmosphere. I think the probability of the world burning is very low, but such a topic definitely makes a very good headline. Like - 'Oh my God... we could end the world.' 'Tyson had said the same thing during the discussion on the YouTube channel. On this, Green quipped that from the point of view of astronomers, the possibility of destroying the world is very low. Admitting his mistake, Tyson smiles and says, "Thank you, I agree with you." Green says that this is really a matter of concern and people have to be serious about it.

A similar apprehension is also associated with the 'Large Hadron Collider', a big project of the European Nuclear Research Organization based in Geneva. People are worried. That if you turn on the accelerator and create a small black hole here, it will destroy Switzerland. This serious concern is not unfounded. We will have to brainstorm on this. When some colleagues thought about it, their assessment was that it was not something we should be worried about. It is extremely unlikely that this topic will not be discussed at all. The end of the world is a big deal.

  Greaney said that scientists at Los Alamos were trying to create temperatures and energy density that had never been done before on Earth. Therefore, it was natural to raise the question - 'Is there any such process by which it can ever happen that the world comes to an end?' Theoretically, the answer may be 'yes', but in practice, the answer will be 'no'.

Other actors in the movie 'Oppenheimer' are Robert Downey Jr., Josh Hartnett, David Krumholtz, Francis Pugh, Emily Blunt, and others. This famous film has earned 960 million dollars so far. This film has been released many times. There is a possibility that this film may be brought back to theaters. From this, its popularity can be estimated. It is expected that its total worldwide earnings will touch the figure of 1 billion dollars. The Oscar awards ceremony will take place on March 11.
