again‚ the result is a colossal explosion meant for mass destruction. The three main effects that would follow a nuclear explosion are blast‚ thermal radiation or heat‚ and radiation. The very first thing to happen is the formation of a fireball. The fireball gives off the thermal radiation that cremates anything within a quarter mile and ignites any and all flammable materials within ten miles. The thermal radiation can cause eye injuries as well as skin burns called flash burns. Between 20 and 30
