When did the US bomb nagasaki and hiroshima?

Answer 1

On August 6, 1945, the United States used a massive, atomic weapon against Hiroshima, Japan. This atomic bomb, the equivalent of 20,000 tons of TNT, flattened the city, killing tens of thousands of civilians. While Japan was still trying to comprehend this devastation three days later, the United States struck again, this time, on Nagasaki. August 6, 1945, a B-29 bomber, the Enola Gay, took off from Tinian, a North Pacific island in the Marianas, 1,500 miles south of Japan. The twelve-man crew were on board to make sure this secret mission went smoothly. On August 9th, United States droped the bomb on Nagasaki.
Monday, Aug. 6 1945 and Thursday, Aug. 9 1945
The bomb dropped over Hiroshima was on August 6 1945 and the one in Nagasaki was on August 9 1945.
Aug. 6 1945 and Aug. 9 1945
Hiroshima was August 6, 1945 and Nagasaki was August 9, 1945
Hiroshima was bombed first on August 6, 1945. Next on August 9, 1945, Nagasaki was bombed.
Hiroshima was the first one on 6 august 1945 and Nagasaki the 9th.
August 6 and 9 1945
On August 6, 1945, at 9:15 AM Tokyo time, a B-29 plane, the "Enola Gay" piloted by Paul W. Tibbets, dropped a uranium atomic bomb, code named "Little Boy" on Hiroshima, Japan's seventh largest city. In minutes, half of the city vanished. According to U.S. estimates, 60,000 to 70,000 people were killed or missing, 140,000 were injuried many more were made homeless as a result of the bomb. Deadly radiation reached over 100,000. In the blast, thousands died instantly.

The city was unbelievably devastated. Of its 90,000 buildings, over 60,000 were demolished. Another bomb was assembled at Tinian Island on August 6. On August 8, Field Order No.17 issued from the 20th Air Force Headquarters on Guam called for its use the following day on either Kokura, the primary target, or Nagasaki, the secondary target. Three days after Hiroshima, the B-29 bomber, "Bockscar" piloted by Sweeney, reached the sky over Kokura on the morning of August 9 but abandoned the primary target because of smoke cover and changed course for Nagasaki.

Nagasaki was an industrialized city with a natural harbor in Western Kuushu, Japan. At 11:02 a.m., this bomb, known as the "Fat Man" bomb, exploded over the north factory district at 1,800 feet above the city to achieve maximum blast effect. Buildings collapsed. Electrical systems were shorted. A wave of secondary fires resulted, adding to their Holocaust.

Flash burns from primary heat waves caused most of the casualties to inhabitants. Others were burned when their homes burst into flame. Flying debris caused many injuries. A fire storm of winds followed the blast at Hiroshima as air was drawn back to the center of the burning area. Trees were uprooted. The bomb took the lives of 42,000 persons and injured 40,000 more. It destroyed 39 percent of all the buildings standing in Nagasaki. According to U.S. estimates, 40,000 people were killed or never found as a result of the second bomb.
Hiroshima was hit by the atomic bomb first on the 6th of August 1945 and 3 days later Nagasaki was bombed. (9th Aug 1945)
Hiroshima was bombed at 8:14-8:15 AM local time on August 6, 1945.

The bomb was a uranium-type fission explosive called "Little Boy".

Nagasaki was bombed three days later, at 11:02 AM local time on August 9, 1945. The bomb was a plutonium-type fission bomb called "Fat Man".

To date these are the only nuclear weapons used in warfare.
