A geological marvel, a subterranean chamber where uranium ore, bathed in water, spontaneously ignited, creating Earth’s only natural nuclear reactor. This is not the plot of a science fiction ...

and it altered substantially all our views about nuclear physics. Now, the Oklo site is recognized worldwide as the first natural reactor known to humankind, and the discovery has raised many ...

Deep Fission and Endeavour Energy partner to bury nuclear reactor a mile underground, powering data centers with clean, ...

Meanwhile, here on Earth ... big as this," he said. Nuclear power plants have been around since the 1950s exploiting a fission reaction, whereby the atom is split in a reactor, releasing a ...

The task at hand is to demonstrate the feasibility of harnessing nuclear fusion - the same reaction powering our Sun and stars - at ... The International Thermonuclear Experimental Reactor (ITER) ...

Thus the discovery started when physicists in France realized there was something strange in uranium samples mined at Oklo. Normally, natural uranium has 0.72% of the uranium-235 (U-235) isotope, ...

Meanwhile, here on Earth, two main methods are being explored to generate ... we need to make one as big as this," he said. Nuclear power plants have been around since the 1950s exploiting a fission ...

NANO Nuclear Space (NNS) will focus on optimizing “ZEUS”, a solid core battery reactor, and “ODIN”, a low-pressure coolant ...
