The bomb fell on the narrow Urakami Valley northwest of downtown Nagasaki. It exploded roughly 1,600 feet over Urakami Cathedral at 11:02 a.m. Of the 286,000 people living in Nagasaki at the time of the blast, 74,000 people were killed and another 75,000 sustained severe injuries. The damage was less extensive, since the blast was boxed in by the river valley and partly to the fact that the bomb was dropped about 2 miles off target. The bomb had an estimated yield of 22 kilotons.
