The atom bomb is a bomb using uranium and/or plutonium as fuel and when dropped, exploded in mid-air to cause more damage than if exploded on contact with the ground. Anyone caught directly in the explosion would be incinerated instantly, others further out were killed by blast effects, or had their skin boiled off on the side facing the burst. The two atom bombs killed about 250,000 people in Japan. Those killed were people living in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
