#HomiBhabha, in full #HomiJehangirBhabha, (born October 30, 1909, Bombay [now Mumbai], India—died January 24, 1966, Mont Blanc, France), Indian #physicist who was the principal architect of that country’s #nuclear energy program.

A visionary, Bhabha realized that the development of #NuclearEnergy was crucial for the future industrial growth of the country, as the available sources of power and #energy were limited. Funded by businessman J.R.D. Tata, Indian nuclear research began with the inception of the Tata Institute of Fundamental Research (#TIFR) in 1945, with Bhabha at the helm. Appointed chairman of the #AtomicEnergy Commission instituted by the government of India in 1948, Bhabha was instrumental in setting up the Atomic Energy Establishment in Trombay. All the scientists conducting research in nuclear power and related areas were transferred from TIFR to this institute. After the death of Bhabha in an air crash on Mont Blanc in 1966, the institute was renamed the Bhabha Atomic Research Centre (#BARC) by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi in his memory.
