Nagasaki, Japan after the bomb. "Fat Man" was possibly named after Winston Churchill, though Robert Serber said in his memoirs that as the "Fat Man" bomb was round and fat, he named it after Sydney Greenstreet's character of "Kasper Gutman" in The Maltese Falcon.

Tsar Bomba is the nickname for the AN602 hydrogen bomb, the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated in human history. Developed by the Soviet Union, the bomb was originally designed to have a yield of about 100 megatons of TNT, but the yield was reduced to 50 megatons in order to reduce nuclear fallout (and also to prevent the blast from destroying the drop aircraft). Only one bomb of this type was ever built and it was tested on October 30, 1961, in the Novaya Zemlya archipelago. Mega Tsunami, Mushroom Cloud, Mushrooms

"The first atomic bomb, exploded in the desert of New Mexico, created such intense heat that it fused the desert sand to glass." (July 16, 1945) The device exploded with an energy equivalent around 20 kilotons of TNT. It left a crater of radioactive glass in the desert 10 feet deep and 1,100 feet wide. The shock wave was felt over 100 miles away, and the mushroom cloud reached 7.5 miles in height. Wikipedia All Nature, Science And Nature, Ufo, Land Of Enchantment, Interesting Stuff
