When the bomb was originally used the scientists made educated estimations on the after effect of the atom bomb on the land and on the people. They thought people would be safe with in a 50 mile radius and thought the radiation would "die out" within 10 years. Later they concluded it could be 50-100 years before no radiation would be detected.
It amazed the physicians of the gravity of the injuries and the "vaporization" of thousands of people. For the next ten years, people who had been exposed to the radiation died from radiation poisoning and cancers. If they did not die right away from radiation sickness they died within months from serious burns. Some of the burn victims survived but they suffered for the rest of their lives.
A team of Japanese and American scientist are still monitoring the after effects of the radiation fallout.
One of the sad things that happened was a monsoon hit Nagasaki several weeks after the bomb damaged the city. This hard rain and wind further scattered the radiation poison.
