On April 26, 1986, Reactor #4 at the Chernobyl Nuclear Power Plant near the town of Pripyat, Ukraine, exploded.
From August 29 1949 until January 15 1965 there were 715 nuclear weapon tests by the Soviets (involving 969 devices) by official count, most at Semipalatinsk Test Site and Novaya Zemlya, and a few more at various sites in Russia, Kazakhstan, Turkmenistan, and Ukraine.
The largest nuclear device detonated by the Russians was the Tzar bomb detonated October 30, 1961 and had an energy yield of 56 megatons (56 million) of TNT.

What do you call the explosion called from an atomic bomb?
a nuclear explosion
How far away can you see a nuclear explosion and what factors determine the visibility of such an event?
The visibility of a nuclear explosion depends on various factors such as the size of the explosion, weather conditions, and the observer's distance from the blast. Generally, a nuclear explosion can be seen from tens to hundreds of miles away, depending on these factors.
Why does the atomic bomb make an explosion?
uncontrolled nuclear fission and/or fusion.
Does atomic explosion and nuclear explosion mean the same?
This question could be easily misconstrued. While atomic and nuclear explosion mean the same thing, and all atomic bombs are nuclear bombs, not all nuclear bombs are atomic bombs. The more powerful nuclear bombs are hydrogen bombs, and there is a very important fundamental difference between the two. ============================================================== A bomb is fission - the splitting of an atom H bomb is fusion - the joining together of atoms (and much more powerfull)
Why does a mushroom cloud form after a nuclear bomb explosion?
Gravity if forming the clouds from the atomic bomb.
What are the method of controlling nuclear explosion?
nuclear explosion?

Is it possible for a nuclear plant to experience a nuclear explosion?
no
What do you call the explosion called from an atomic bomb?

If a nuclear weapon exploded on a nuclear Power Plant would the explosion radius increase?
No, a nuclear explosion on a nuclear power plant would not cause the explosion radius to increase. The explosion radius would be determined by the yield of the nuclear weapon itself, not by the presence of the power plant.
Nuclear explosion in Germany in 1990-1992?
There were no reports of a nuclear explosion in Germany between 1990-1992. Germany does not have a history of nuclear weapons testing and there have been no instances of nuclear explosions in the country during that time period.

There is no record of a nuclear explosion occurring on November 6, 2010. If there had been a nuclear explosion, it would likely have been a significant event that would be widely documented.
What causes a nuclear explosion?
A nuclear explosion is caused by the rapid release of energy from a nuclear chain reaction. This can occur in a nuclear weapon when a critical mass of fissile material is rapidly brought together, leading to a highly destructive explosion. In a nuclear reactor, such an explosion is prevented through control mechanisms that regulate the nuclear reaction.
Was their ever a nuclear explosion in Belarus?
