The Americans selected Hiroshima and Nagasaki
as the targets for the two atomic bombs dropped
on Japan. Kyoto was also considered, but was
rejected because it is the former imperial
capital. Nagasaki was chosen since a huge
shipyard was located beside its harbor. The
first bomb was dropped on August 9, 1945.
