as we learned in history when it was in school, the atom bomb ever dropped to kill thousands of people in World War 2 in the city of Hiroshima on August 5 and Nagasaki on August 9, after which the atomic bomb is no longer used to attack other countries, but the superpower countries like the United States and Russia are still constantly developing such cursed bombs, the nuclear bomb test is usually done in the middle of the sea so that its explosive power is not dangerous to humans, but what about marine biota and also the fish that are innocent such as hachi, shiraoshi, jinbe, neptune, caimie, surume
This Mk-14 type weapon is the first solid-fueled US thermonuclear bomb, generating an explosive power equivalent to 6.9 Mt (megaton) of TNT during Castle Union nuclear tests in the Marshall Islands on April 26, 1954.

Mk-14 is 1.56 m in diameter, 5.64 m long and weighs between 13,100 kg and 14,100 kg. Mk-14 was dropped from the air with a parachute 20 meters from the B-36 and B-47 bomber. This is done to slow the fall of the bomb to allow time for the aircraft to escape the explosion.
