Craig Beall (guest), the same amount of people would have died had the war dragged on any longer. At the time, most respectful Japanese people would have gladly kept fighting if all they had left was a knife. Kamikaze fighters were not some curious isolated fluke.

Nonsense! Both Uranium & Plutonium were used in the Fat Man implosion type fission bomb. Both metals used were the highly radioactive isotopes. This type of bomb would not work at all if there was no Uranium used. You should have paid more attention to high school physics and chemistry class.

The irony is, that they were actually aiming for mitsubishi shipyards - which suffered little damage.

We are all lucky that the Americans were using plutonium instead of uranium, if so Nagasaki and Hiroshima would be uninhabitable for billions of years. Don't believe me? Compare the half-lives of Plutonium And Uranium.

Just look at where they dropped it. Right in the middle of a fully populated area with woman and children. I wake up every day and I try so hard to ignore the way this world is.

I visited this place and was enlightened to the aspects and tragedy that nuclear war can bring. It was mind boggling, I was shocked by the exhibits. This place is a must see for anyone visiting Japan. Our world leaders and politicians should be compelled to see this. It is an eye opener and it will instill in their minds that this was not only tragic but must never be unleashed on earth again as an act of war. This was a firecracker compared to the weapons the world possesses today. The aftermath of such a war is too frightening to even comprehend.

An exhibit showa a clock stopped at 11:02 am on August 9 1945. A mushroom cloud hangs over the city of Nagasaki at that time. 75,000 people were instantly obliterated, 25000 were wounded. A marker stands over ground zero nearby
