It's a general term used to apply to the time following the advent of nuclear technology. It could have begun when the first controlled nuclear chain reaction took place, or when the first nuclear bomb was detonated. That was in the 1940's.

The nuclear age refers to the period in history characterized by the development and use of nuclear weapons, beginning with the first atomic bombs used during World War II. It also encompasses the subsequent arms race and proliferation of nuclear weapons during the Cold War era. The nuclear age has raised concerns about the potential catastrophic consequences of nuclear warfare and has influenced global politics and security dynamics.
