Promises and Perils of Nuclear Power Nuclear power refers to the generation of electrical energy by controlled nuclear reactions. These reactions produce heat‚ which in turn creates steam that runs the generators to produce electricity. Approx. 1/8 of the electricity worldwide generated comes from nuclear energy. In this task‚ you will analyze the use of nuclear energy as a resource energy. * Discuss the scientific and technical concepts related to the use of nuclear power as an energy resource

Nuclear weapons are one of the many common fears of the modern world. Because at any minute‚ the world could suffer a nuclear filled catastrophe‚ killing millions. Not only are they potentially life threatening‚ the biggest nations in the world have stockpiles of these weapons of mass destruction. That is not the scariest part however. The effects of nuclear warfare are just as deadly‚ if not‚ worse. Nevertheless‚ the rapid extermination of the radioactive explosives ought to occur globally because

The US‚ realizing that the Nazis could possibly develop this weapon making them unstoppable‚ started its own nuclear weapons program‚ called the Manhattan Project. The US won the first nuclear arms race when they tested the first nuclear weapon on the Alamogordo Bombing Range in New Mexico on July 16‚ 1945. Only
