Some Pictures of Nuclear Explotion

This is the Tsar Explotion

The Badger Detonation: a 23 kiloton nuclear explosion fired on April 18, 1953 at the Nevada Test Site

The French army detonated France's first two-stage thermonuclear bomb in the Fangataufa atoll of Pacific Ocean on August 24, 1968. The nuclear explosion had a yield of 2.6 megatons.

Why are nuclear bombs bad??

Nuclear weapon is an explosive device that derives its destructive force from nuclear reactions, either fission or a combination of fission and fusion. Both reactions release vast quantities of energy from relatively small amounts of matter; a modern thermonuclear weapon weighing little more than a thousand kilograms can produce an explosion comparable to the detonation of more than a billion kilograms of conventional high explosive. Even small nuclear devices with yields equivalent to only a few thousand tons of TNT can devastate a city. Nuclear weapons are considered weapons of mass destruction, and their use and control has been a major aspect of international policy since their debut.

The Effects of nuclear Bombs

Nuclear explosions produce both immediate and delayed destructive effects. Blast, thermal radiation, and prompt ionizing radiation cause significant destruction within seconds or minutes of a nuclear detonation. The delayed effects, such as radioactive fallout and other environmental effects, inflict damage over an extended period ranging from hours to years.

List of states with nuclear weapons

Nations that are known or believed to possess nuclear weapons are sometimes referred to as the nuclear club. There are currently nine states that have successfully detonated nuclear weapons. Five are considered to be "nuclear weapons states", an internationally recognized status conferred by the Nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT). In order of acquisition of nuclear weapons these are: the United States, Russia (successor state to the Soviet Union), the United Kingdom, France, and China.
Since the NPT entered into force in 1970, three states that were not parties to the Treaty have conducted nuclear tests, namely India, Pakistan, and North Korea. North Korea had been a party to the NPT but withdrew in 2003. Israel is also widely believed to have nuclear weapons, though it has refused to confirm or deny this.[1] The status of these nations is not formally recognized by international bodies as none of them are currently parties to the NPT. South Africa has the unique status of a nation which developed nuclear weapons but has since disassembled its arsenal before joining the NPT.

Tsar Bomba - The King of Bombs

The Tsar Bomba is the King of all Bombs. No other man made explosion has come close to the power of 1961 Tsar Bomba test. Tested by the Soviet Union, its yield was ten times greater then all of the munitions exploded during World War 2. The irony of the Tsar bomb was that despite its power, it was useless as a weapon.
The actual development of the bomb began in July 1961. The device was designed to have a yield of 100 megatons, as requested by Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev. The Soviet Union did not make the development of the bomb secret, in fact, it was well publicized. Nikita Khrushchev repeatedly made claims the Soviet Union had a 100 megaton bomb, and that a scaled-down version of the device would be tested.
A nuclear testing moratorium suspended all tests since 1958. The decision to resume testing by the Soviet Union was a calculated one, designed to coincide with the recent erection of the Berlin Wall in August of 1961. Weapons designers and scientists conjured up new kinds of nuclear weapons designs to be tested, including the Tsar Bomba.
