Why isn’t nuclear power the solution to our energy problem?
okay, so nuclear power is a little more expensive. but it’s 100% zero emissions and it could possibly save the environment. and with things like breeder reactors that turn non-fissionable uranium 238 into fissionable plutonium 239 and actually makes MORE fuel than it burns. and i think that we could build nuclear powered rockets and […]
Explain how the fission can be slowed in the nuclear reactor.?
What is the future for nuclear energy?
just what are the plans for nuclear energy in the future? also, how is nuclear energy bad for the environment?
TVA Announcement on New Nuclear Build
On October 30, 2007, TVA joined NuStart Energy in submitting an application for a combined operating license for a new nuclear power plant to the Nuclear Regulatory Commission in Rockville, Md. The following is a statement from TVA Chief Operating Officer Bill McCollum that he delivered at the US Capitol later that day.
What does it tell us when our President prefers Nuclear Power over Clean renewable energy.?
Tells me that he prefers people like Mr. Burns… Nuclear energy isn’t efficient at all. Nuclear doesn’t just pop out of plain air, you know. Then you have to build and maintain the plant. Keep it and the surrounding environment safe from it, every day. Dispose the waste which never dissapears. Nuclear plants use absorbatant […]
Nuclear FISSION: Give me 3 examples of isotopes used in fission reactors?
I need to know! I have uranium-235 but that’s it!
How much does nuclear energy cost? Compared too other energy sources?
How much does it cost after the nuclear reactor is built? So if the entire world ran off nuclear energy and nothing else, would my energy bill be cheaper?

a nuclear reactor uses: controlled fission, uncontrolled fission or fusion?
HELP! I need to know some advantages and disadvantages of using nuclear energy?
Just tell me 5-7 advantages of using nuclear energy. Thank you so much!
Why does Iran a country with one of the world’s largest gas reserves need nuclear energy?
Natural gas is used by the rest of the world for electric generation and is very clean and safe. It makes no sense for Iran to claim the need for nuclear energy. The only reason they must be experimenting with atomic energy is for the purpose of making a bomb.

Advocates: Solar Cheaper Than Nuclear — North Carolina Public Radio WUNC
Advocates: Solar Cheaper Than Nuclear — North Carolina Public Radio WUNC Alternative energy advocates say advancements have made solar panels a cheaper way to generate electricity than nuclear power plants. Duke emeritus economics professor James Blackburn says the learning curve for manufacturing solar panels is complete. Read more on WUNC Chapel Hill
Is it possible to build a nuclear reactor that is powered by nuclear fusion rather than nuclear fission?
What is your idea about using of Nuclear Energy in IRAN ?
Do you think that pacefull using of Nuclear Energy is porhabite in NPT rolls ? What is your idea about using of Nuclear Energy in IRAN ?
Where is my nuclear fusion?
As a child, I was promised nuclear fusion. “Limitless free energy”, they said. “No more dams or fission reactors”, they said. “100-mph speed limits”, they said. (Oh, wait, that’s a different rant.) Unanticipated engineering problems — or energy company conspiracy?
Do the negatives of nuclear energy outweigh its positives?
do you think turning to nuclear energy is a good step for a country like Australia? What’s your opinion on nuclear energy?
Why are we not focusing on nuclear power, the cheapest and cleanest energy source?
It costs less than a tenth of wind power.
What is the waste of of nuclear fission reactors?
I cannot find it in any textbook we are given for class TY
