Difference between Linus Pauling and Manhattan Project

Linus Pauling vs. Manhattan Project

Linus Carl Pauling (February 28, 1901 – August 19, 1994) was an American chemist, biochemist, peace activist, author, educator, and husband of American human rights activist Ava Helen Pauling. The Manhattan Project was a research and development undertaking during World War II that produced the first nuclear weapons.
