Edward Teller (1908–2003) was a Hungarian-American physicist best known for his contributions to nuclear physics and for his role in the development of the hydrogen bomb. Often referred to as the "father of the hydrogen bomb," Teller played a pivotal role in the Manhattan Project during World War II, which developed the first atomic bombs. After the war, he advocated for the development of more powerful thermonuclear weapons.
