That depends on what you're asking. Tsar Bomba was the most powerful single event to date, with an energy equivalent to 57 million tons of TNT.

However, as far as controlled machine machines, the most powerful was the giant moon rocket, the Saturn V, with 7.5 million pounds of thrust. The N-1, developed by Russia in the same time period, actual had a slightly more powerful first stage, but much less efficient second and third stages, rendering the Saturn V much more powerful. It was more powerful than all the nuclear power plants in primarily nuclear supplied France.
