The answer isn't a clear number. They say it takes about 40-50 years for nuclear radiation to effectively drop to safe levels or safe-ish. It's all science talk about the half-life of radioactive atoms. Every X amount of years the atoms energy is cut in half. At least that is a gross generalization of it.
The effects are still apparent today though. Many Japanese are still born with birth defects or problems due to radiation. When you get radiation sickness, it can structurally change your DNA, in turn you can pass it to your kids. Born without arms, legs, etc.
It's really an awful thing, Japan is an awesome country. I've never been but I want to go there lol. They have an awesome culture.
Look up the nuclear reactor meltdown of chernobl (that's probably not a correct spelling). They've got a documentary on it on Netflix. Similar but more lasting effects I think because it was a plant not a bomb.

Long before the first one was made. That was the purpose of making them: to have a very dangerous bomb (all bombs are dangerous).
How do stars produce large atoms?
Nuclear fusion. Stars like the sun are basically hydrogen bombs at their core. Hydrogen bombs are fusion bombs, building heavier elements up from hydrogen in their high pressure and temperature cores. All the chemical elements in your body apart from hydrogen were built up in stars that exploded long, long ago,
