The First Lightning: The First Russian Nuclear Atomic Bomb

When I thought that the Soviet Union was testing the nuclear bomb at the end of all work, Krugatov, Berea, and their aides went to the command post, and Krushatov took other scientists. They want to witness the bomb explosion so that they can open the door. They know they have time to close the door back as they know that they need 30 seconds to be hit by shock waves so they do not worry injured .

The atomic bomb and nuclear bomb are powerful weapons that use nuclear reaction as an explosive energy source. Scientists first developed nuclear weapons technology during the Second World War. At the end of the Second World War, the United States used only two atomic bombs in two wars against Japan. During the proliferation after the war, during the Cold War, the United States and the Soviets competed for advantage in the global nuclear weapons competition. Many of the studies were conducted under the direction of the theoretical physicist J. Robert Oppenheimer of Los Alamos, New Mexico. On July 16, 1945, in the remote desert area near Alamogordo, New Mexico, the first atomic bomb exploded successfully - Trinity test. It made a huge mushroom cloud about 40,000 feet tall and came to the nuclear era.

August 29, 1949, the Soviet Union exploded the first atomic bomb at the semi-paratinsk test site in Kazakhstan. The case ended US monopoly on nuclear weapons and promoted the Cold War. In the 1950s, arms race competition became the focus of the Cold War. The United States tested the first hydrogen (or thermonuclear) bomb in 1952 and defeated the "super bomb" made by Russians. When the US Secretary of State John Foster Dulles announced this policy called "collective retaliation" in January 1954, the political situation of the Cold War became clearer - any major Soviet attack would be massive nuclear Due to the reaction "mass retaliation", the most important byproduct of the Cold War - intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) has emerged
