In short, yes. While I don’t know, the specifics about the fallout from the bombs dropped on Japan, but I do know that the fallout from the Chernobyl disaster in Ukraine created a nuclear fallout cloud that drifted all the way to Germany and affected everyone in between. There was acid rain and elevated radiation levels for months.
And although it did not create a cloud of radioactive waste, the Fukushima disaster in 2011 released an enormous amount of contaminated water into the ocean around the plant that can still be traced.
Edit: the amount of people going out of their way to be combative, rude, and to try to start an argument is quite disappointing. If you don’t like my answer, just downvote and move on.
Pretty sure the fallout from Chernobyl was all the radioactive particles dispersed into the atmosphere by the initial explosion of reactor 4, and the subsequent fires of radioactive and contaminated materials.
Literally a “dirty bomb” dispersing radioactive material, instead of the radioactive material being converted directly to energy
You said you didn’t know the specific on the bombs dropped.
Ok, so 0 information on the bomb dropped.
But that Chernobyl created a massive cloud of fallout that impacted neighbouring countries and caused acid rain.
Well, that’s true. But that wasn’t a fusion explosion.
So, it felt like you were trying to relate 2 unrelated things. Like an apples-to-oranges situation.
I feel that I clarified that the bombs dropped were designed to converted all fusable material to energy. They were literally designed to weaponise fusion.
And that the fallout from Chernobyl wasn’t caused by material turning into energy (ie fusion), but from particle dispersion.
So, I guess.
In that you said you had 0 knowledge of Thing A, and stated an unrelated fact about Thing B. Where both things are true, and are related by the fact that nuclear fuel is involved. But that’s as far as the relationships go
But everything you said after “yes” does nothing to support the “yes”

That’s precisely what I said, with slightly different wording. But thanks for the additional detail.
I mean, I guess? Kinda?

That’s a really long way to admit that I was right, and you just didn’t like my answer anyway.
