Nuclear blasts have yet another layer of harm that is both bad for the human body and the environment: fallout. What does nuclear fallout do to the human body? A big danger comes in the form of cancer and radiation. When exposed to the radiation from nuclear fallout, it can cause a che...
We’ve seen what North Korea can do, and even though it hasn’t been in the news lately, the experts we consulted say that terrorists are still trying to get dirty bombs into the country. The threat of a nuclear attack on the United States is higher than it’s been since Berlin had...
Radiation is also made by artificial processes that happen inside nuclear power plants and nuclear bombs.What causes radiation? Atoms of a particular chemical element often exist in slightly different forms called isotopes. The metal tin, for example, has ten stable isotopes: atoms that have the ...
“The Nukemap is aimed at helping people visualize nuclear weapons on terms they can make sense of — helping them to get a sense of the scale of the bombs. By allowing people to use arbitrarily picked geographical locations, I hope that people will come to understand what a nuclear weapon...
The use of depleted uranium weapons is one way the self-repressed part of the innate bisexuality resurfaces. They WANT contact with the virile enemy - they WANT weapons that do not travel far - they want close contact, why ? resurfacing of the latent hom
The ability to weigh atoms came about by an observation from an Italian chemist namedAmadeo Avogadro. Avogadro was working with gases (nitrogen, hydrogen, oxygen, chlorine) and noticed that when temperature and pressure was the same, these gases combined in definite volume ratios. For example: ...
aAnother possible nuclear terrorism threat are devices designed to disperse radioactive materials over a large area using conventional explosives, called dirty bombs. The detonation of a "dirty bomb" would not cause a nuclear explosion, nor would it release enough radiation to kill or injure a ...
Nobody knew.They hadn’t really kept as good tabs on that as they perhaps ought to have. Oppenheimer, Groves, et al., hadn’t even really thought that much about the radiation effects before dropping the bombs.1 The Nagasaki bomb, at least, was an implosion model, and these had been ...
Radiation We fear radiation because of nuclear bombs and things like that. Some of us were irreparably scarred in 1983 by a TV movie called“The Day After”about the aftermath of nuclear war. It terrified millions of people and mentioned radiation a lot. ...
