Nuclear power uses unstable elements like uranium. Uranium is constantly going through a process called nuclear decay‚ which means the atom is splitting apart over a period of time‚ measured in half-lives. This is why it is the element of choice for nuclear power plants. Uranium is special because it can go through what is called induced fission. Induced fission is when a free neutron is fired at an atom (like uranium). The atom will absorb the neutron‚ and immediately becomes unstable and splits

efficient‚ clean‚ high out-put energy production. As a civilization we need not focus on what the past has held for energy production but rather what the present and future hold for us. Two key options are the long lasting‚ high out-put but environmentally hazardous option which is nuclear fission (nuclear power) and the safe but potential ground water contamination hazard which is geothermal energy. This paper will point out strictly fact based information on both forms of energy and which one shows the

Fast-growing India needs nuclear power as well‚ for its twin benefits: it’s both clean and can cater to people on a mass scale. India has been making advances in the field of thorium-based fuels‚ working to design and develop a prototype for an atomic reactor using thorium and low-enriched uranium‚ a key part of India’s three stage nuclear power programme.[7] The country has also recently re-initiated its involvement in the LENR research activities‚[8] in addition to supporting work done in the
