The Largest-Ever Bomb
The Tsar Bomba is a hydrogen aerial bomb. It was developed by the Soviet Union and tested on October 30, 1961. It was the largest detonated bomb and still holds that title. It was detonated in Russia but could be seen in Norway, Greenland, and Alaska. The blast wave circled the Earth three times. The blast shattered glass windows nearly 500 miles away in a village on Dikson Island.
