fwiw, those atmospheric nuclear detonations in the '50s and '60s were remarkable for the confirmation of multi-spectral effects that physicists had only speculated on.
however on a human level, the Soviet nuclear tests near Семипалатинск / Semipalatinsk in Kazakhstan could be summed up in this quote among the locals: "...the day the Sun rose twice..."
The Soviets were not exactly squeamish about conducting atmospheric nuclear tests 'within range' of nomadic folk.
