520 |a On the 6th of August 1945, the US B29 dubbed the Enola Gay flew over the Japanese city of Hiroshima and dropped a nuclear bomb called Little Boy. The plane, piloted by 509th composite group commander Paul Tibbets was launched from the airbase in the West Pacific, 6 hours flight time from Japan. When it was launched it exploded about 600 meters above the city, 80,000 people were killed outright and an estimated further 60,000 deaths occurred in the following months. There were many reasons why Hiroshima was targeted. The research and development project that resulted in the design and construction of the world's first atomic bombs was named 'the Manhattan Project'. After being tested in New Mexico in July, Little Boy was dropped on Hiroshima under the order of President Harry S. Truman, as was 'Fat Man, ' the second bomb was dropped on Nagasaki three days later. The US made the momentous decision to use nuclear weapons in a bid to force Japan's surrender and end the six-year-old Second World War. The Japanese surrendered on August 15.
