Among those able to watch the explosion in amazement was General Leslie Groves‚ who‚ in a letter to the War Department in Washington D.C. wrote “ There were tremendous blast effects. For a brief period there was a lighting effect within a radius of 20 miles equal to several suns in midday; a huge ball of fire was formed which lasted for several seconds.

These were death tolls from the initial blast‚ the result is much grimmer once you throw the suffering from radiation and fallout into the mix – the after effect of a nuclear blast. Consequently‚ the total comes up to around 90‚000 through 140‚000 in Hiroshima alone‚ and the result doubles for Nagasaki with ease . But an invasion surely would be much

Besides public and international disapproval‚ France may suffer other side effects because of the nuclear testing. The explosive power of the blast is just less than 20 kilotons (20‚000 tons of TNT). The bomb on Hiroshima was 15 kilotons. New Japanese research shows that bomb radiation increases risk of long term cancer. Radiation causes ionization in the molecules of living
