"Blowups Happen" is a 1940 science fiction short story by American writer Robert A. Heinlein. It is one of two stories in which Heinlein, using only public knowledge of nuclear fission, anticipated the actual development of nuclear technology a few years later. The other story is "Solution Unsatisfactory", which is concerned with a nuclear weapon, although it is only a radiological "dirty bomb", not a nuclear explosive device. The story is one of the earliest in Heinlein's Future History chronology, taking place in the late 20th century.

| - A volte esplodono (Blowups Happen), tradotto anche coi titoli L'esplosione incombe ed Esplosioni che capitano, è un racconto di fantascienza del 1940 dello scrittore statunitense Robert A. Heinlein. È una delle due storie in cui Heinlein, basandosi solo su ciò che all'epoca era di pubblico dominio sulla fissione nucleare, anticipa l'effettivo sviluppo della tecnologia nucleare di pochi anni più tardi e i rischi connessi; l'altra storia è Soluzione insoddisfacente che si occupa di un'arma radiologica nucleare, non una bomba atomica. Fa parte del ciclo della Storia futura. (it)
- 't Kan exploderen is een sciencefictionverhaal van de Amerikaan Robert Heinlein. Het verscheen voor het eerst in Astounding Science Fiction in 1940. Daarna paste de schrijver het aan met de ontwikkelingen in kernenergie. Een versie in The past through tomorrow vermeldt dat het verhaal uit 1940 dateert, terwijl in die versie de Atoombommen op Hiroshima en Nagasaki worden genoemd. Heinlein creëerde zo zou zijn eigen tijdparadox. In nog weer latere versies, keerde hij terug naar het oorspronkelijke verhaal, omdat hij in de versie van (dus) 1946 meer fouten ontdekte dan in de versie van 1940 (Heinlein in Expanded universe uit 1980).

- Il arrive que ça saute (titre original : Blowups Happen) est une nouvelle de Robert Heinlein publiée pour la première fois dans Astounding Science Fiction en 1940. La nouvelle a été révisée par l'auteur en 1946 pour l’adapter aux connaissances issues du Projet Manhattan et de l'explosion des deux bombes atomiques sur le Japon en août 1945. Dans le cycle de l’Histoire du futur, dont elle est la quatrième nouvelle, elle succède chronologiquement à la nouvelle Les routes doivent rouler, et précède L'Homme qui vendit la Lune. (fr)

| - "Blowups Happen" is a 1940 science fiction short story by American writer Robert A. Heinlein. It is one of two stories in which Heinlein, using only public knowledge of nuclear fission, anticipated the actual development of nuclear technology a few years later. The other story is "Solution Unsatisfactory", which is concerned with a nuclear weapon, although it is only a radiological "dirty bomb", not a nuclear explosive device. The story was first published in Astounding Science Fiction in 1940, before any nuclear reactors had ever been built, and for its appearance in the 1946 anthology The Best of Science Fiction, Heinlein made some modifications to reflect how a reactor actually worked. In the omnibus The Past Through Tomorrow, "Blowups Happen" is referred to as a 1940 story, but it mentions Hiroshima and Nagasaki, reflecting revisions made in 1946. The story made a later appearance in The Worlds of Robert A. Heinlein, a collection of short stories published in 1966. It also appears in his Expanded Universe in 1980, but here it appears as it did in Astounding in 1940 and Heinlein writes in an introduction to the story: "I now see, as a result of the enormous increase in the art in 33 years, more errors in the '46 version than I spotted in the '40 version when I checked it in '46". The story is one of the earliest in Heinlein's Future History chronology, taking place in the late 20th century. (en)

Dans le cycle de l’Histoire du futur, dont elle est la quatrième nouvelle, elle succède chronologiquement à la nouvelle Les routes doivent rouler, et précède L'Homme qui vendit la Lune. Robert Heinlein imagine une industrie nucléaire civile ayant construit des centrales nucléaires afin d'alimenter en énergie les États-Unis. Il évoque aussi les risques engendrés par la construction et la maintenance de ces centrales, et propose une solution inattendue pour faire face au risque nucléaire. (fr)
