More than likely, you’re aware of some nuclear weapon facts. You probably know about Hiroshima and Nagasaki. You might even know that nuclear weapons have gotten significantly more advanced since then. There have been failed tests, space tests, explosions in the arctic, and explosions in the ocean. However, the bombs that are created today are completely more powerful than the bombs dropped on Hiroshima and Nagasaki…
And although those were the only two nuclear warheads ever dropped during war time, there is plenty of reason to worry about the future of any potential atomic conflicts. Nuclear warheads are dangerous for numerous reasons. Not only do they create an insanely large blast but they emit radiation that damages the environment and can even change the climate. Were there to be a nuclear war today, life as we know it would most likely come to an end. As Albert Einstein once said “I do not know with what sort of weapons World War 3 will be fought, but I know that World War 4 will be fought with sticks and stones”. And that is what is at stake. These weapons are capable of changing everything and many times we have come closer to nuclear war than you might hope to think. These are 25 insane things you probably didn’t know about nuclear weapons.
