Nobel developed a more stable  form of nitroglycerin, which he called dynamite.  His brother was killed in an accidental explosion in the family's arms factory.

In 1876, Nobel met Bertha von Suttner, an Austrian pacifist and writer, who would become a significant influence on his later life and work. Von Suttner was a prominent advocate for disarmament and international cooperation, and her writings and activism inspired Nobel to reevaluate his own role in promoting violence and destruction through his invention of dynamite.

Not making apologies,  but people can change.  I'm open to people trying to rectify mistakes.
