The detection of Soviet offensive nuclear missiles in Cuba.
The discovery during the Cuban Missile Crisis occurred in October 1962. U.S. reconnaissance flights revealed Soviet nuclear missile installations in Cuba, which triggered a 13-day confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union. This critical moment highlighted the dangers of nuclear proliferation and the geopolitical tensions of the Cold War.

No, they are not the same thing. An atomic bomb is a type of nuclear weapon that releases a large amount of energy through nuclear fission or fusion reactions. A nuclear missile, on the other hand, is a missile system that is capable of delivering a nuclear warhead to a target.
Build a missile for launching satellites into orbit. Build a nuclear bomb. Replace the satellite payload of your missile with that nuclear bomb. Adjust the missile guidance system to drop the bomb on a selected target instead of injecting it into orbit. Simple?

Because it is a missile with one or more nuclear warheads.
never.
No
Maybe. If ABM was nuclear itself, it will probably cause fratricide in the warhead causing it to dud. If ABM is conventional it might detonate conventional explosives in warhead. Whether this produces yield or not depends on how safe the warhead was designed against one point detonation nuclear yield.
Pour water over it.
