When one realises just how many nuclear blasts have taken place (especially near Utah), it makes one wonder what an observer from another planet would consider was happening on Earth.

Each nation gets a blip and a flashing dot on the map whenever they detonate a nuclear weapon, with a running tally kept on the top and bottom bars of the screen. It starts slowly but if you want to see real action, skip ahead to 1962 or so

I was surprised that France lit up that many.
