The article focuses on the possible consequences of a nuclear war between the United States and the Soviet Union. Prompt effects of any nuclear explosion include the formation of hot, luminous fireball, thermal radiation causing skin burns, and fire. The size of strategic forces of the United States is based on the prompt effects of nuclear weapons. The explosion could also cripple the survivors as a delayed effect.
