Damage caused by radiation from the atomic bomb			The Lucky Dragon No. 5 and Hiroshima
On August 6, 1945, Hiroshima suffered the world's first atomic bombing. The bombing was characterized by its incomparable explosive energy and the emission of radiation that harms living organisms. The Special Exhibition explains the damage caused by radiation from the atomic bomb and the "black rain" that fell after the explosion.			In the A-bombed city of Hiroshima as well, the Lucky Dragon No. 5 incident gave impetus to the movement to ban atomic and hydrogen bombs. The first World Conference Against A- and H- Bombs was held in 1955. The Special Exhibition explains the relationship between the Lucky Dragon No. 5 and Hiroshima and actions to ban atomic and hydrogen bombs.
