Nagasaki Day is observed on 9th August every year. Nagasaki Day 2020 aims to commemorate the day when a 'Fat Man', atomic bomb, killed 80,000 people during World War II in 1945.
Nagasaki Day is observed to promote peace politics against the war and create awareness about the threat of nuclear weapons and the effects of nuclear energy.
It is said that the United States dropped the bomb in order to end the Second World War quickly and effectively with the least amount of casualties on the US side. The US chose Nagasaki as the population was only two-thirds of Hiroshima's population. The city was industrially more important. Nagasaki was a port for the trans-shipment of military supplies and embarkation of troops in support of Japan's operation in China. Nagasaki had industrial suburbs of Inase and Akunoua.
Nagasaki has suffered in ways that we can never imagine. Science is a gift for us, but the race of home sapiens is turning this gift in a curse.
Albert Einstein once remarked," Had I foreseen Hiroshima and Nagasaki, I would have torn up my formula in 1905. "
Let's remember history once again and promise that no nation shall suffer the way the Japanese city of Nagasaki did.
Science mustn't be confused as a weapon to wage war. Spread peace, Spread love.
