On August 6, 1945, during World War II, the United States dropped a uranium gun-type atomic bomb named “Little Boy” on the city of Hiroshima which instantly killed an estimated 80,000 people, tens of thousands more would later die of radiation exposure. Three days later, a second American B-29 bomber dropped a plutonium implosion-type bomb “Fat Man” on Nagasaki, killing an estimated 40,000 people. (Photo by Richard Atrero de Guzman/NurPhoto)
