BINGO! A detonation consumes all of the reactive materials while a fizzle leaves remaining fuel to continue giving off radiation.

Fat Man and Little Boy were both air burst detonations which meant that most of the contamination was limited too a very very small area immediately around the detonation points, which means it was easier to clean it up. If they'd been ground burst detonations things would've been much much different and both cities would've been rendered uninhabitable hellscapes due to extreme radioactive contamination.

One word sums it up.. fallout. The Hiroshima and Nagasaki detonations were atmospheric detonations, resulting in very little fallout. The Chernobyl meltdown happened underground, resulting in tons of fallout. Basically, when nuclear materials mix with soil and debris, it creates fallout. The closer that detonation is to the ground, the more fallout there will be.

The Indian Point Nuclear Reactor from the 1970's recently closed. This is near Peekskill, NY, where there is a fairly new Holiday Inn Express Hotel across the street, Louisa St, and John Walsh Blvd from the decommissioned plant, where a friend worked for many years. We had a Christmas Party there in 2000, which never was held again after 9/11 due to increased security. In 2012, my wife and I went to Albuquerque, NM, for a reunion of Air Force members who serviced at the 509th Bomb Wing first at Roswell, NM, Walker, AFB, and later like me at Pease AFB, Portsmouth, NH, which closed in 1992, now at Whiteman AFB, MO where the B2 bombers are located. Then Colonel Tibbets, grandson of Colonel Tibbets from the Enola Gay was a guest there, while stationed at Kirkland, AFB near Albuquerque. We also visited the Atomic Bomb museum in the area too.

Don't conflate radiation with contamination. Radiation is energy. Radioactive particles, commonly referred to as contamination, give off radiation energy. The danger isn't the contamination or radioactive particles, it's the radiation energy they emit. You need to know the difference between those two to gain a good perspective of these situations. The amount of irradiated material present and then released during the chernobyl event is miles above that created by the bombs in Japan. The half life of whichever nuclides are present plays into how long the radioactive material will stick around before decaying. When the explosion and fires happened at chernobyl, they weren't releasing radiation, they were spreading radioactive particles all over the place. Which particles/material then give of radiation to whatever they get stuck to. That's why chernobyl was so much worse and is still uninhabitable to this day.

The amount of deaths following Chernobyl is probably much higher. In some European countries the amount of people dying to cancer increased. Often these deaths can not be exactly tight to the meltdown, but these people died and would otherwise probably lived longer.

When I visited Hiroshima as a foreign exchange student to Japan way back in the Summer of 2003, as we drove into the City of Hiroshima and I was surprised to see that the entire city was rebuilt, I asked myself over and over why was Chernobyl and the atomic bombs dropped so different? It took me a while to figure it out because I worried going to Hiroshima there could be lingering radiation, of course I was wrong since there was a CITY of people living there.

🌟 Nuclear power getting stronger all the time! 🌟

Hiroshima & Nagasaki are perfectly safe now, because when the Little Boy and the Fat Man exploded above each city, they did so about a 1/4 mile above the ground. Their fireballs never rouched the ground. If they had, a tremendous amount of radioactive material would have been created. And each explosion was over in a millionth of a second, very little time for radiation to be spewed out. But at Chernobyl, when the reactor split open, it released a collosal amount of radioactive material directly out onto the ground, and over several days. Consequence: It is said that Chernobyl will be uninhabitable for 20,000 years.

@davidford3115

Wrong. The bombs used up the fuel and hence what remain produced very little radiation after the decay products reach their half-life. The reactor core was a fizzle which means that there was remaining fuel to continue to release radiation.
