Nuclear energy:There are other low-carbon sources of energy. Why should we choose nuclear? Compared to all other common energy sources, nuclear energy has three significant advantages that are not widely appreciated: high capacity factor [DOE, 2020], long service life [Statista, 2023], ...
The only point we really need to note is this: since there are billions and billions of atoms in even a tiny spec of matter, it should be possible to make lots of energy from not very much at all. That's the basic idea behind nuclear power....
A flight of fancy resulting from a warped use of facts? Absolutely not! The truth about nuclear energy is mostly not what has been believed by the public, news media, and much of the non-nuclear scientific community over the past six-plus decades. It’s time to set the record straight,...
