Why did the US use atomic bombs instead of trying an invasion of japan?

The US was actually planning both (23 atomic bombs in 1945 and invasion in late october 1945 followed by more atomic bombs in 1946 and a second invasion in spring 1946), the invading troops would be fighting on the world's first "atomic battlefield" with atomic bombs detonating within sight of invading US troops roughly twice each week through the duration of the invasion. Both Japanese and invading US troops would be exposed to fallout from these bombs every day.Fortunately the Japanese surrendered after only the first 2 atomic bombs and more than a month before the first planned invasion, making the rest of the US plans unnecessary.
