Illustrations most in color. Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory LLNL is a federal research facility founded by the University of California Berkeley in 1952. A Federally Funded Research and Development Center it is primarily funded by the U.S. Department of Energy DOE and managed and operated by Lawrence Livermore National Security LLC LLNS a partnership of the University of California Bechtel BWX Technologies AECOM and Battelle Memorial Institute in affiliation with the Texas A&M University System. In 2012 the laboratory had the synthetic chemical element livermorium named after it. LLNL's principal responsibility is ensuring the safety security and reliability of the nation's nuclear weapons through the application of advanced science engineering and technology. The Laboratory also applies its special expertise and multidisciplinary capabilities to preventing the proliferation and use of weapons of mass destruction and bolstering homeland security. LLNL was established in 1952 as the University of California Radiation Laboratory at Livermore an offshoot of the existing UC Radiation Laboratory at Berkeley. It was intended to spur innovation and provide competition to the nuclear weapon design laboratory at Los Alamos in New Mexico home of the Manhattan Project that developed the first atomic weapons. Edward Teller and Ernest Lawrence director of the Radiation Laboratory at Berkeley are regarded as the co-founders of the Livermore facility. From its inception Livermore focused on new weapon design concepts; as a result its first three nuclear tests were unsuccessful. The lab persevered and its subsequent designs proved increasingly successful. In 1957 the Livermore Lab was selected to develop the warhead for the Navy's Polaris missile. This warhead required numerous innovations to fit a nuclear warhead into the relatively small confines of the missile nosecone.
