strategic nuclear submarine of the U.S. Navy commissioned in 1981, carrying 24 Trident ballistic missiles in a double row of vertical launch tubes (shown with hatches open). The average patrol time at sea of Ohio-class submarines is 70 days, and their nuclear reactor cores need replacement on...
Nuclear submarine, submarine that relies on a nuclear reactor to drive its propulsion system. A nuclear submarine may or may not be armed with nuclear weapons. The chief advantages afforded by nuclear power are increased speed (allowing submerged submari
Despite these benefits, the production of radioactive wastes such as uranium mill tailings and used reactor fuel raises various medical risks associated with nuclear energy usage. For millions of years, these substances may be radioactive and harmful to human health. It may result in radiation ...
