Albert Einstein, the greatest scientist of the 20th Century and noble prize winner is famous for his theory of relativity and needs no introduction. Given herein is the link to a writeup on him on the Wikipedia http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Einstein
Though he was a German by birth,he opposed usage of the then newly discovered nuclear fission as a weapon and alerted the President of America that Germany might be developing a nuclear weapon and recommended that United States should initiate a similar research which eventually led to what would become the Manhattan Project.While Germany could not make a nuclear weapon, United States developed nuclear weapons successfully and used it on Japan at a later stage of the Second World War. This led the world countries into a race to develop nuclear weapons subsequently.
