"The Day of the Bomb" typically refers to the dates on which atomic bombs were dropped on the Japanese cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki during World War II. The bomb was dropped on Hiroshima on August 6, 1945, and on Nagasaki on August 9, 1945. These events are significant as they led to Japan's surrender and the end of World War II, but they also resulted in immense destruction and loss of life.
