I was some things about nuclear propulsion being the most efficient way of traveling in space. How fast could it allow us to travel? In miles per second please. Also if you could please tell me how long it would take to reach the planets in our solar system.

...before the tribulation? I have read some websites where they say a nuclear war in the Middle East is certain before the tribulation. The countries and people involved are Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and the Palestinians. They are completely destroyed along with a part of Israel. They say this is...

This is the Gerald R. Ford aircraft supercarrier. She will be the lead ship of the new class that will eventually replace the Nimitz-class supercarriers. She is also the first carrier to be entirely designed using three-dimensional modeling software. More »

A proposed study could help determine if there is a link between living near nuclear power plants or other nuclear facilities and having a higher risk of cancer, but challenges and limitations exist, says a new report from the National Research Council, the operating arm of the National Academy...

Nuclear Cold Fusion: 23 Years Later Some of you are probably not too young to remember what happened nearly 23 years ago, on March 23, 1989. It was a dramatic announcement of the discovery of the so called Cold Fusion. Some people think that this was the greatest fiasco of the last century...

I'm not sure how we haven't heard about this yet, but it seems that*Bed Bath & Beyond (and a lot of other companies) are pedaling, among other things, radiation. As in, nuclear waste. More »Post from: Blisstree

I'd like to ask the people of YA what their opinion is of nuclear power. Do you feel it's a safe way to create electricity or do you feel is a danger that will kill us all? Or do you feel something in between. I know how I feel Nuclear power has taken a bum rap. It is the safest, cleanest, most...

In the beginning of the Fukushima Nuclear Crisis, in the hours and days after the earthquake and tsunami struck, nuclear power experts assured us that no matter how bad it seemed, nuclear material would stay in the reactors. It was unlikely that the reactors would melt down, and if they did...

There is a lot of news in Ana's Feed about the nuclear power industry world wide, as well as across Japan, and especially disturbing news related to the Fukushima plant in particular. In brief, the main reason that the situation at these reactors seems to be kinda-sorta under control (as in the...

Nearly two-thirds of Israeli Jews, 64 percent, favor establishing a nuclear free zone in the Middle East - even when it was spelled out that this would mean both Israel and Iran would have to forego nuclear weapons - finds a new University of Maryland poll. The research is a joint project of the...

you have ever seen-and did the game FALLOUT 3 borrow some of its ideas? 1 minute ago - 4 days left to answer. Additional Details @it can be watched streaming from a famous online movie thing thing that starts with "Net___"

The Fukushima nuclear power plant was opened to journalists for the first time; See below for numerous links to related stories. There appears to be very high levels of radiation at Fukushima plant reactor #3, and at either reactors 1 and 3, or both, nuclear fission may have been occurring...

The French are great at lots of things: bread, cheese, wine, shrugging. Sadly, their nuclear power stations aren't so amazing. They're unsafe, and need a massive overhaul. More »

Of the types of interest groups my professor identified, the only ones that seem applicable are business or trade association. Wikipedia just calls it a "nuclear industry lobbying group". I know this is a stupid question and the distinction may not really matter in the scheme of things, but I...

A Tungsten vest provides its wearer fantastic protection from radiation's damaging effects. Problem is—said vest also weighs about 132 pounds. So how does the Haz-Mat crew of tomorrow gird their loins in this radiation-resistant element? Exo-suits, obviously. More »

how long ago was the last nuclear power plant in the USA built?

Japan is hoping to have the wrecked Fukushima nuclear plant safely shuttered by the end of the year, but a little radioactive wrench just got dropped: inspectors have discovered evidence of very recent fission. That's bad news. More »

The radiation at the Fukushima plants has gone up, rather than down, since June. This may be because contaminated water has become more concentrated due to evaporation. The release of radiation from the plant into the air continues, although a covering over Reactor 1 is almost completed. The...

My mouth is jealous of Jason Sheehan's mouth. It got to taste the tastiest burger ever, and tell the best burger story of all time. I won't ruin it for you, but it involves a-bombs, Oppenheimer, and green chiles. Yum. [Gilt Taste] More »
