Hey everyone.

I have a question regarding the information in Fallout 1 Manual (which you could see here: http://fallout.wikia.com/wiki/Vault_Dweller's_Survival_Guide#RobCo_Pip-Boy_2000)

I was curious , but due to my lack of studying Physics enough, is the information about the Nuclear Bombs blast effect correct ?

I swear I didn't understand half of the things said there, and then I got interested t osee if it's real, because it looks kinda educational.

Thanks in forward.

Well, take a look at some real life information.

What does the Pip Boy entry have to do with nuclear bomb blasts?

Track down a copy of the Dept of Defense books "The Effect of Atomic Weapons" and "The Effects of Nuclear Weapons" which go into real-world effects of nuclear weapons using data from tests in the Nevada Proving Ground and Hiroshima/Nagasaki.

My personal copy of "The Effect of Atomic Weapons" comes from my grandfather whose physics group all went to work on the Manhattan Project. My grandfather opted not to (not for pacifist reasons) and got the book from one of his friends who went. As such, it's literally priceless to me.

These books have been released to the public in PDF form, such as this :
