I assume that you are referring to fallout.
It was only a tiny amount of the total fallout at Hiroshima, but as the mushroom cloud did enter the stratosphere some did travel around the world. Most of the fallout though probably fell back to earth in less than a couple hundred miles.

How far do fart particles travel and what factors can influence their distance?
Fart particles can travel up to 10 feet, but factors like the force of the fart, the environment, and the presence of clothing can influence how far they travel.
How far does beta travel in air?
Beta particles can travel a few feet in air, but they can be stopped by a thin sheet of aluminum or plastic. The distance beta particles travel depends on their energy, with higher energy particles traveling farther.
How far can beta particle travel through air?
Beta particles can travel up to a few meters in air before they lose energy and are absorbed. The distance they can travel depends on the energy of the particle, with higher energy beta particles able to travel further.
Why is the strong nuclear force a short range force?
they attract one another
How far do alpha particles travel?
Alpha particles have a range of a few centimeters in air and are stopped by a sheet of paper or human skin. Their penetration range in tissue is limited to a few cells.
