The United States motive for pursuing nuclear proliferation is one of the cornerstones of American history and American foreign policy. The initial interest in building a nuclear weapon was in response to Nazi Germany scientists successfully developing fission in 1939 in Berlin1. After successful experiments by American scientists‚ and the possibility of uranium being transferable to a bomb‚ Albert Einstein‚ through Alexander Sachs delivered a note to President Roosevelt2 . In his letter Einstein

IS NUCLEAR ENERGY A SOLUTION TO THE ENERGY CRISIS? Contents * Abstract * Introduction * Report * Conclusion * Bibliography * Appendix Abstract Nuclear energy could be the future of energy and potentially solve the energy crisis problem. Nuclear energy is a sustainable energy source and it can provide millions of times the amount of energy output from a fixed mass of fuel than any other energy source‚ such as fossil fuel‚ for the same mass of fuel.

The visible surface‚ chromosphere‚ and corona make up the exterior of the Sun. 2. What is nuclear fusion? What role does nuclear fusion play in the Sun? Nuclear fusion happens when two atomic nuclei combine to form one heavier nucleus. Since the majority of the atoms at the core of the Sun are ionized‚ the nuclei and electrons are stripped from each other in the heat. About

In the era of global climate change‚ and concerns about humanity’s long-term reliance on fossil fuels‚ many think the solution lies in alternative sources of energy‚ including nuclear power. All our nuclear power plants are based on fission: splitting heavy atoms into lighter components in a controlled fashion. Though fission is safe when all goes well‚ the fuel is radioactive‚ waste disposal can
