Tsar, October 30th 1961, 50 megatonnes of tnt!
It could have caused third degree burns it you were standing 65 miles away
The biggest nuclear weapon ever tested was the Tsar Bomba, a hydrogen bomb detonated by the Soviet Union in 1961. It had a yield of 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated.
The biggest nuclear bomb ever detonated is called the Tsar Bomba. It was detonated by the Soviet Union in 1961 and had a yield of 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear weapon ever tested.
The "Tsar Bomba" was the biggest bomb ever detonated, at 50 megatons. The U.S has bombs ranging in yield of 0.01 Kilotons, to about 1 Megaton. The reason for 1 megaton, is that there is no real benefit of having them any bigger.
The largest nuclear bomb ever detonated was the Soviet Union's Tsar Bomba in 1961, which had a yield of 50 megatons. It was the most powerful nuclear weapon ever created and tested.
The atomic bomb was the first nuclear weapon ever made during World war two and it was the first weapon that have been tested before Hiroshima was under attack.
* Earthquake Richter 5.0 = 32 kilotons nuclear weapon, like was used at Nagasaki * Earthquake Richter 6.0 = 1 megaton nuclear weapon * Earthquake Richter 7.0 = 32 megaton nuclear weapon * Earthquake Richter 7.1 = 50 megaton nuclear weapon, Tsar Bomba, the largest nuclear weapon ever tested * Earthquake Richter 8.0 = 1 gigaton nuclear weapon, much larger than anything ever made
The largest megaton bomb ever detonated was the Soviet Union's Tsar Bomba in 1961, with a yield of about 50 megatons. It was the most powerful nuclear weapon ever created and tested.
The most powerful nuclear weapon ever detonated was the Russian "Tsar Bomba" in 1961. (50 Megatons) It had a yield of 100 megatons of TNT, but was reduced to avoid fallout. People 100 km away would have gotten third degree burns from the heat of the explosion.
As of now, Russia possesses the largest nuclear bomb in the world known as the Tsar Bomba. It was tested in 1961 and had a yield of 50 megatons, making it the most powerful nuclear bomb ever detonated.
The largest nuclear weapon ever tested, the Tsar Bomba by the Soviet Union in 1961, had a blast radius of over 7 miles. The fireball created by the explosion measured around 2 miles in diameter and the shockwave was felt over 400 miles away.
It is the most destructive weapon ever created.
The most dangerous nuclear bomb is either:the one with the greatest explosive powerthe one that explodes closest to youthe one controlled by non-state actors (terrorists)
