Crater of Atom

Crater of Atom is a location in the Commonwealth in Fallout 4. It is Ground Zero of the nuclear attack in 2077.

Layout
The Crater of Atom hosts humans from the Church of the Children of Atom. The Crater is the result of the nuclear bomb that the Sole Survivor sees before heading down the Vault in 2077. Inside the huge crater there's a metal shack and some wooden cabins scattered around assumed to be built by Children of Atom members around the area. From afar, the site glows with a light green aura from the radiation.

Note

 * Talking to Mother Isolde slowly removes any radiation you currently have. It is unsure if this is a bug or intentional.
 * Attacking the Crater of Atom will not cause Virgil to turn hostile.
 * The physical location of the boundaries of the crater does not match up exactly with the crater as shown on the map, however the map markers are still correct.

Notable loot

 * Astoundingly Awesome Tales, Curse of the Burned, on the second floor of the house behind Mother Isolde.
 * Note from Brother Hoberman, on Mother Isolde.
