What does the Fat man look like?
The "Fat Man" was the codename for the atomic bomb that was dropped on Nagasaki, Japan, on August 9, 1945.
It was the second and last nuclear weapon used in warfare, following the "Little Boy" bomb dropped on Hiroshima.
The Fat Man was an implosion-type nuclear weapon with a plutonium core.
It had a spherical core of plutonium-239 surrounded by high explosives, which, upon detonation, compressed the plutonium into a supercritical state, triggering a massive fission chain reaction.
The bomb was 10,300 pounds (4,670 kg) in weight, 128 inches (3.3 m) in length, and 60 inches (1.5 m) in diameter.
The design of Fat Man was complex, involving a series of explosive lenses that symmetrically compressed the plutonium core to achieve criticality.
The name "Fat Man" refers to its wide, round shape, which was necessary to accommodate the implosion mechanism.
This design was chosen after it was discovered that the plutonium produced had impurities that made the original gun-type design impractical.
