This discussion will examine the events of that particular explosion and the aftermath  in the country, as well as the revisionist historical thoughts, which are occurring today. History Academic: According to journalistic reports from the time, " The morning of Thursday, August  9, (1945) was mild and humid in Nagasaki.

The  bombardier of Bockscar made a radar approach and released the "Fat Man" bomb at 11:02 a.m. The weapon exploded 1,540 feet above the Urakami River valley, 1.6 miles from  the intended target in the center of the city."
