Nuclear Power Nuclear power was discovered in early 20th century. In 1938‚ the first fission proved the great power of nuclear reactions. Only a few years after that‚ as the first nuclear bomb went off‚ nuclear power was successfully used by human. But ironically‚ that way is one of the most dangerous ways against human race. Nuclear power is one of the most powerful and dangerous energy sources in the human history. As the science and technology become better and better‚ nuclear power could also

Nuclear engineering is the practical application of the breakdown of atomic nuclei and/or other sub-atomic physics‚ based on the principles of nuclear physics. It includes‚ but is not limited to‚ the interaction and maintenance of nuclear fission systems and components specifically‚ nuclear reactors‚ nuclear power plants‚ and/or nuclear weapons. The field may also include the study of nuclear fusion‚ medical and other applications of (generally ionizing) radiation‚ nuclear safety‚ heat/thermodynamics

NUCLEAR ENERGY AND SAFETY Consumption of energy is increasing nowadays so nuclear energy has very importance for energy needs. Nuclear energy is produced naturally and in man-made operations under human control and it is a thriving global industry. A total of 435 nuclear power plants are operating around the world in 30 countries. Also ‚ nuclear energy has some advantages Nuclear energy has the lowest impact than fossil fuel energy on environment because nuclear plants don ’t emit

Summary By some calculations‚ the chances that India will test a nuclear weapon in the coming years are not high. But if India again surprises the world as it did in 1998 with five nuclear explosions in the desert of Rajasthan‚ then conversations on the implications for the Indo-U.S. civil-nuclear deal will begin. The record of debate on testing during negotiations reflects the depth of American concern that testing will lead to unstable nuclear escalation and the lengths the U.S. went to in order to deter

John Kenneth Muir analyzes the issue over the post-apocalyptic destruction‚ in which he studies the effect on human civilization by asking the viewer‚ “How many would act in the same fashion; refusing to trust "strangers" until they knew that the risk was passed?” One of the effects Muir mentions throughout the reassessment is the loss of hope for the greater good of a social club. Still‚ too much hope in society can be dangerous in the wrong hands‚ and will most likely lead to a catastrophic result
