that is 1,500 times what nagasaki was. it is significant if you think about it in that sense and the amount of destruction that can come from one of those bombs. >> absolutely, we're literally talking about in mathematical terms is orders of magnitude, more destructive. the chief terror of nuclear weapons is not just their blast but their long-term effects and fallout and those things were so ill understood. most people thought of them as really, really big bombs and expressed them as such. it is the same as seven b-29 loads. trying to express this so that people are falling back on their understanding of conventional explosives. good. very good. so we're good so far? let's wrap it up. what do we come to? the japanese strategy of spiritual exhaustion of inflicting such casualties and horrors on the americans that the americans will come to some sort of negotiated settlement that will be acceptable to japan. that failed. the horrors that they perpetrated reinforced the american desire to fight on to unconditional surrender

and the last time anyone use nuclear arms was hiroshima and nagasaki in 1945. and every time somebody gets nuclear arms, everyone gets nervous about it, but they never get used. so even mao and stalin never use their nuclear bombs. and, in fact, is a fantastic conundrum in that offered nobel whose oil fortune founded the nobel prize said his great dream in life was great a weapon that was so powerful it would make wars obsolete. and many people believe that keller, with his backyard bomb ideas, came up with that idea. that, in fact, the whole reason the cold war state gold was because everybody had nuclear arms. when reagan met with thatcher and said, my great dream is to abolish all nuclear weapons, she said, are you crazy? what do you think is keeping us in world war iii? that if one has these nuclear weapons. so one of the great conundrums is should add keller and the other creators of the atomic weapons get the nobel prize for keeping us at peace with the atomic weapons? many people think that's true, but i don't want to leave you on this terribly sad story

on august 9, we dropped another atomic bomb on nagasaki.he picture on talk shows the city before the bomb, the picture on bottom shows the city after the bomb. and the war came to an end. the smithsonian institution tried to do a display that would show the enola gay, which was the plane from which the atomic bomb was dropped, and it was so politically sensitive that they eventually threw their hands up and said they wanted to have a discussion, wanted to put things in context, but whatever they tried lead to protests and disruptions and objections and they eventually said, we just can't do it. they show the plane with a simple plaque. 50th anniversaries are usually the most difficult. 25th anniversaries everyone still agrees. 100th anniversaries, no one remembers. 50th anniversaries are the hardest. i used to walk past this on my way to school everyday. it is more or less on the spot -- so, what we have in a sense here is the triumph of big science. we have an atomic bomb. what should we do now? the war is over. what are we going to do abo

with hiroshima and not the there was nagasaki, an unconditional surrender. but this -- sputnik came along and surprised us. why didn't the united states put something in orbit? sputnik indicated to a lot of nations that we were behind and we had to scurry to catch up. and i believe that is why president kennedy asked his what we can do to beat the soviets. and supposedly, somebody said it's going to take 50 years to have a man on the moon. well, he didn't believe that. commitment after gegaringeron -- yuri had flown around. alan shepard barely into orbit, that's all we could do. 20 days later, he made that speech. , jamesder of nasa wagner, was told what was going to cost. on his way over in the limo to the white house to tell president kennedy what it was going to cost, he took that number and multiplied it by two.

move east-northeast at 14 miles per hour taking it onshore at nagasaki. we could see 20 to 28 inches of rain in the next couple of days so major flooding expected across much of japan right on through the next few. all right. it looks like back here, though, things are looking very nice outside. we have clear skies over san jose right now. and clear around much of the bay area. still patchy fog at the coast but the temperatures are warming up in a hurry now. 81 in livermore. 66 in san francisco. and 77 degrees in san jose. throughout the afternoon, just a bit of a breeze in through the delta. mostly sunny skies. patchy fog at the coast and then low clouds and fog returning tonight, maybe a little patchy drizzle out there, as well. and then warming weather as we look toward the weekend. but between now and then, could get a little bit cooler. high pressure breaking down a little bit so we'll see more of that sea breeze later on tonight carrying fog in our direction and cooling down temperatures. in fact, the fog is filling in along the coastline as we head

in nagasaki, historical rainfall amounts which you haven't seen in half a century has fallen over the region. these are your digits. 4 in some locations. and this is going to be an ongoing story, unfortunately. a lot of the people, thousands of people have been evacuated due to the surge of the moisture from the typhoon, exacerbating the situation with the rainy season band lingering here for so long. for the next 72 hours not a lot of people can go back home due to this typhoon directly affecting the area. 180 to 200 millimeters of rainfall could top over the amounts we showed you. so further flooding and secondary disasters. these could be dangerous situations. so please be aware of this. not only is it going to be affecting kyushu, but china and taiwan have been seeing high waves. and eastern china will start to see the stormy conditions. even south korea by wednesday. here in northeastern china, severe thunderstorms are fecting locations due to an upper cold low. and real heed over by jing. northern japan is at 30 degrees with plenty of sunshine on tuesday. now in europe. central

look at that, nagasaki, 315 millimeters has occurred out here. even further to the north and mountains, 200 millimeters has been reported. it does look like over the course of next 24 hours we're still going to be seeing rain totals out here on top of what has already been falling. flooding an landslides is still a risk out here into western parts of japan, through thursday night. into the key peninsula, you're impacted out here. by friday morning, this is going to work its way off there towards the tokyo and kanto plane area. friday, you definitely want to have an umbrella ready out here. showers are going to continue to come down. and still back there toward the west in shanghai, high of 28. and continuing to have that impact of rain showers here on your friday. let's take a look now over towards the americas. i want to talk about the tropics here because we have our first named tropical storm of the season. this is tropical storm arthur. just off the coast of florida, continuing to spin up. now, this is one imagery we often use from space. the

bearing down on japan but it is weak being with a category three and category one is going to hit nagasaki inland flooding because of the water which is fresh water flooding from the rain curves right along japan for the next 24 to 48 hours. the seven-day forecast shows a sea breeze and cooler tomorrow through friday and temperatures on saturday are the same and sunday and monday and tuesday 80's and 90's away from the coast. >> the accident near sfo is not causing delays northbound highway 101 up to sfo around millbrae avenue and this is where it is located, off to the shoulder, possibly a couple of spectators throwing down but other than that, we have clear conditions. in san jose, this new accident northbound 880 is a hit-and-run accident at 101 and the nimitz is coming in at top speeds in both directions and we are looking at low down 101 away from the 280/680 to the nimitz and slow-and-go beyond the san jose airport. start with the richmond-san rafael bay bridge toll plaza is wide open and some cars are coming into the tolls and you get across the water only five minutes it will take
