Why Farnsworth refused to build the Atomic Bomb

During the summer of 1941, Farnsworth had his farm in Maine and invites him to work on a secret project in Chicago and that would have been the Fermy Pile, which was part of the Manhattan project. But Farnsworth turned to his wife and said, "I think they're trying to build an atomic bomb. So here's here's one of the most knowledgeable people of this whole quantum realm saying, I'm not going there." while the rest of them all filed in and went to work on the bomb. Because of the way television was absorbed into the culture and the economy, what we have lost is that video, all this screen technology that dominates our world now comes from the same well of cosmic knowledge as nuclear energy and atomic weapons.
