what are the basic features of a nuclear fission reactor?
Why are dems against nuclear energy and building more nuclear facilities?
I’ve heard that Dems won’t allow the development of nuclear energy. Why is that? What is wrong with nuclear energy-other than when a facility melts down its not good for anyone nearby?

Is it necessary to use nuclear plants for energy in Turkey?
Or using wind,breeze seems more logical.Then why people prefer nuclear energy?
Alternative Energy Source- Hydrogen and Nuclear?
Ok, so the debate goes hydrogen is a very efficient (in terms of energy per unit mass and unit volume) and clean source of energy. However, getting the hydrogen, such as from water or methane, consumes energy. For every joule you get out, you have to put ATLEAST one into it, and the current sources […]

is nuclear energy as clean as they claim ???
i have heard the USA justifying having Nuclear energy saying it is the cleanest one but they do not have where to put all the waste . how can it be clean if any place the waste is put on will be contaminaed forever ??? for those who think the goverment will find the best […]
Can someone please explain to me how fission can be slowed down in the nuclear reactor?
Please help me understand this im not quite sure how this works?
What is the issue surrounding safe nuclear energy?
If we can find a way to safely store nuclear waste, why not just use the energy to get rid of global warming?
Are nuclear-powered ion drive engines worth using in outer space?
A few years back,Nasa considered sending such a probe to Jupiter.It would have been called JIMO(Jupiter Icy Moons Orbiter).It would have been powered an ion drive.With a Fission Reactor as well, It would have done a lot more good science due to the extra fuel onboard. How about a fusion-ion drive even. What would be […]
Will the USA build any more nuclear power plants?
The chairman of the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission, Jon Wellinghoff, said today of new coal and nuclear plants, “We may not need any, ever.†“I think [new nuclear expansion] is kind of a theoretical question, because I don’t see anybody building these things, I don’t see anybody having one under construction,†Wellington said. Building nuclear […]
Why is nuclear fission not likely to be used?
Why is nuclear fission not likely to be used directly for powering automobiles? 1. Nuclear reactions are harmful for the en- vironment. 2. We haven’t found a good way to control nuclear fission. 3. A fission reactor has a critical mass. Its minimum size is too large to power a small vehicle. 4. The power […]

Is nuclear waste a byproduct of nuclear energy?
I know this may sound like a stupid question but I want to make sure I have the right answer on my presentation. In nuclear energy, is the waste produced/left over a byproduct of this fuel source? The question my teacher wrote down as a reference is: *What are the byproducts of the fuel source? […]
