Nuclear Power

__Nuclear Powerplant Locations__
> > ==== ====
 * The best place to build a nuclear power plant is a place where there won't be any earthquakes, there is a big cooling water supply, there is enough unpopulated space around so it won't hurt any people if there is any radioactive release, and there are adequate roads leading to it. The location of a nuclear power plant is very important because the locations determine the safety of the public living around it. It also determines the profit of the company because if they put the power plant in a bad location, then it will be harder for the workers to get to their job. It will also be harder to transport the energy to the public.

__Nuclear Power History__ > Developments discovered in 1939 sparked activity in laboratories. Hahn Stassman discovered that fission realeased a lot of energy and also released additional neutrons that could cause fission in other uranium nuclei and possibly a self-sustaining chain reaction that would lead to an ENORMOUS release of energy. > > media type="youtube" key="VJfIbBDR3e8" height="346" width="616" align="center"
