Tomorrow: @UChicagoSCRC's "Science and Conscience: Chicago’s Met Lab and the Manhattan Project" opens at #UChicago. Exploring the research & activism of #UChicago scientists after the first controlled #nuclear chain reaction. #CP1 #AtomicAge https://t.co/P1hHHhRFlB

[Argonne National Lab @argonne]

75 years ago, Enrico Fermi led a team of researchers @uchicago that created the first sustained nuclear reaction.

NASA, Department of Energy testing ‘Kilopower’ space nuclear reactor https://t.co/13avvmVQEw via @SpaceflightIns

[Los Alamos National Laboratory @LosAlamosNatLab]

@NASA's #Kilopower space nuclear reactor project, which could someday power a colony on Mars, reached an important milestone when the core was taken critical for the first time. Critical is the point at which the fission chain reaction in the reactor core is self-sustaining.

Scholars discuss the #UChicago scientists who achieved the first nuclear chain reaction on Dec. 2, 1942—and its complex legacy. #nuclear75

"Gen IV reactors reduce water usage & can be deployed in areas where existing reactors cannot.” Jeff Binder @AspenInstitute @AIEnvironment

[Benet Nuclear Club @NuclearBenet]

Meeting tomorrow, 9-12, in S207 at 7:20. Topics will be breakfasts, tshirts (some for purchase), guest speakers and a power plant field trip

[Nuclear Matters @Nuclear_Matters]

When it comes to #nuclear energy, great things really do come in small packages… or in this case, pellets.

[Benet Nuclear Club @NuclearBenet]

The first meeting of the year is tomorrow, Tuesday 8-28), in S207. It isn't CRITICAL you're there, but you'll have a BLAST!
