PPT-The Safeness of Nuclear

Engergy By Nic Calacino The Ultimate Discovery Nuclear energy was discovered during the finals days of World War 2 with the development of Atomic Weapons Russians began experimenting shortly after to harvest energy. Special thanks to Madison Marks for her research assistance on this second edition Copyright 57513 November 2013 In April of 2012 we released the report Nuclear Famine A Billion People at Risk which examined the climatic and agri cultural consequenc Prior to its invention in 1932 the only known sources of particles that could induce nuclear reactions were the natural alpha particle emitters for example radium In fact the only type of nuclear reaction known during that period was that of an alph Milos.
