I'm standing right on the hypocenter where the atomic bomb ignited back in 1945, thus ending the war in the Pacific. I couldn't help but feel a little guilty about the mass devastation caused by the atomic bomb, and the pictures I've seen at the atomic bomb museum really moved me. While I don't disagree with our decision to use the bomb at the time, the result was devastating. The atomic bomb completely obliterated the entire city of Nagasaki, causing the deaths of nearly 80,000 people, and leveling every building within a 2 mile radius. War's hell.
