Nuclear power eliminated from European Commission's text on funding rules, amid heated disagreements between Europe's nations.
European commissioners are at odds with each other over including nuclearpower in new funding rules aimed at boosting green industries in the EUjust 48 hours before the legislation is due to be announced. Nuclearfission was included as a “strategic net zero industry” in an earlydraft of the law, meaning atomic power plants could be in line forfast-tracked permitting, preference in public…

Zheleznogorsk’s Coat of Arms is this badass bear performing nuclear fission by tearing an atom apart, I mean, someone’s gotta do it! I would like to call this guy Zheleznogorsk’s fission bear (Ursus atomus)

Nuclear plant on the moon soon? Wow!
Tumblr media
Nuclear plant on the moon soon? Wow! : Astronauts, in the near future, could benefit from electricity that could power their requirements while they stay on the surface of the Moon. NASA & the US Department of Energy (DOE) have reported they are searching for design ideas for a nuclear fission power plant that will be set up on the Moon. Fission is the process modern nuclear power plants utilise. combined with solar cells, batteries & fuel cells, the suggested project is forecast to power space exploration vehicles for experiments and technologies to make water & other supplies, NASA announced. The chosen system would supply at the least, 40kW of power, enough to repeatedly power 30 households for 10 years. The space agency remarked that the technology might be ready to take off for a demonstration on the Moon in the next decade. Jim Reuter, Associate Administrator for NASA’s Space Technology Mission Directorate, stated: “Plentiful energy will be key to future space exploration. “I expect fission surface power systems to greatly benefit our plans for power architectures for the Moon and Mars & even drive innovation for uses here on Earth.” “NASA and the DOE are collaborating on this important & challenging development that, once completed, will be an incredible step towards the long-term human exploration of the Moon and Mars.” stated Todd Tofil, Fission Surface Power Project Manager at NASA’s Glenn Research Center. Nuclear plant on the moon soon? Wow! Read the full article

Uranium and Science of Producing Energy using Nuclear Fission
Tumblr media
Uranium, a silvery-white metal, was discovered and identified in 1789 by a German chemist, Martin H. Klaproth. This important element is used as fuel in nuclear reactors to generate electricity. It has the atomic number 92, and its atomic symbol is U. Discovery of Nuclear Fission It was in the early 1930s, that scientists discovered that the atom is made up of proton and neutron particles, in addition to electrons. In 1938, two German scientists, Otto Hahn and Fritz Strassman and physicist Lise Meitner of Austria, discovered that they could split the nucleus of a uranium atom by bombarding it with neutrons. This is called fission. As the uranium nucleus split, some of its mass was converted to heat energy. The next step was in 1942, when Enrico Fermi of Italy, noticed that the fission of one uranium atom gave off more neutrons which could in turn split other uranium atoms, starting a chain reaction. This meant that enormous amounts of energy could be produced by this process of nuclear fission. Otto Hahn and Enrico Fermi both won Nobel prizes for their work. Nuclear Chain Reactions Nuclear chain reactions are one of the modern applications of the fission process. The neutrons that are released during fission produce additional fission in at least one other nucleus. This in turn produces more neutrons which again trigger more fission- and thus more neutrons- to set a chain reaction into motion. Read the full article

In nuclear power plants, radioactive uranium is split in a process called nuclear fission. When the atoms are split, heat is generated, and that heat then vaporizes water into steam that turns electricity-generating turbines.

The Science Behind the First Nuclear Chain Reaction, Which Ushered in the Atomic Age 75 Years Ago - Artemis Spyrou and Wolfgang Mittig. 
The Science Behind the First Nuclear Chain Reaction, Which Ushered in the Atomic Age 75 Years Ago – Artemis Spyrou and Wolfgang Mittig. 
That fateful discovery helped give us nuclear power reactors and the atomic bomb. 
Over Christmas vacation in 1938, physicists Lise Meitner and Otto Frisch received puzzling scientific news in a private letter from nuclear chemist Otto Hahn. When bombarding uranium with neutrons, Hahn had made some surprising observations that went against everything known at the time about the dense cores of…
