This is simply the story of what happened to people and objects under the bombs, and it is dedicated to the slim hope that no one will ever this way again. As we move toward the precipice of runaway nuclear proliferation and even nuclear terrorism, we must remember that Hiroshima and Nagasaki represent the approximate destructive power of the weapons we are likely to see again.
