If you happen to be looking at a nuclear bomb without protection at the moment of explosion you will receive permanent retinal burns from the UV radiation. The US Military actually did effects experiments in the 1950s using sheep with their eyelids clamped open so they could verify this and found "upside down mushroom shaped burns" on the retinas of those sheep.
Even with protection from the UV you may experience temporary flash blindness due to the brightness of the visible light bleaching the pigments in the rod and cone cells in the retina.

keroa of coarse Let me look into my crystal ball and tell you...
What does a nuke look like?
Well, there are two types of Nuke, A bomb and a missile or commonly referred to as 'Nuclear Bomb' and 'Nuclear Warhead (or missile)'. It looks like a standard bomb in shape but not size. But there are two versions of Nuclear bomb, Fission and Fusion. The Fission one is more like a standard bomb but larger and the Fusion one looks like a Mini-Missile but is still dropped like a bomb. The Nuclear Warhead (or missile) looks like a missile obviously. The easiest way to answer this question is to look on Google Images and next time you wonder something like this, Please, Don't waste the good people's time to answer your stupidity and minor amount of common sense.

Was there an Atomic Bomb dropped by accident in the US?
actually many. look up broken arrow, the US codename for a nuclear weapon accident. none had a nuclear explosion, although many had explosions or fires of chemical explosives.
What questions should you ask if someone tries to tell you there is a bomb on the property?
· Where is it located?· What is it made of?· When is it going to explode?· What is the size of the bomb?· What does it look like?· What is the type of bomb?· How will the bomb explode?· How will the substance be released?· Did you put it there?· Why did you put it there?· Is the substance liquid, powder or gas?· How much substance is there?· What will make the bomb explode?· What is in the bomb?· What kind of substance is in it?
Do nuclear bombs use nuclear fusion or fission?
Almost all modern nuclear explosive devices use some of each. The early atomic bombs used only fission. All hydrogen bombs use both fission and fusion. Some things you might want to look up are: boosted fission bomb, external electrical fusor neutron source, the plutonium "fission sparkplug" used in each stage of a hydrogen bomb, depleted uranium hydrogen bomb tamper can provide up to 90% of the total yield through fast fission.

Nuclear is an adjective. It has no appearance.
How powerful is a nuclear bomb?
A nuclear bomb is extremely powerful, and that's why there are many countries seeking to obtain this power. Since the US is such a "responsible" country, the president is only aloud to look at the directions of how to control our countries nuclear power when in an emergency. The power of a nuclear bomb is typically measured in kilotons or megatons. 1 megaton is the equivalent of 1 million tons of TNT (similar to dynamite) blowing up. The largest nuclear bombs were around 50 megatons, or 50 million tons (or 50 billion kilograms) of TNT. The smallest nuclear bombs were around 10 tons (yes, that is only 0.01 kiloton). Note that at this time (2013) no country stockpiles bombs either that large or that small (about 50 kilotons to 300 kilotons is currently typical). Also, a nuclear bomb is powerful enough to take out an entire city, while spreading deadly radioactive fallout throughout the area. There is still some leftover radiation in places like Hiroshima and the various above ground test sites.
