In spite of a tragedy on that brisk January day, President Ronald Reagan brought the nation together as one, in mourning the loss of seven lives aboard the space shuttle, Challenger. What made this moment so heartbreaking was due to the fact that not only were six astronauts lives lost, but also, the life of a teacher whom was about to make history by becoming the “first teacher in space” in addition to participating in an outreach program allowing her to teach lessons from her “out of this…

The disadvantages of nuclear energy are; national risk, environment problems and negative effect one human life. The first reasons why nuclear energy is a disadvantage for people is that it poses a national risk. There are many factors in life that may cause national risk. One of big factors which can play a big part in national risk. Nuclear products many factors to make life better, but people also use it to produce many dangerous materials; for example, weapons that are a threat to human life…

forgotten what this power was originally intended for, however; to kill. The United States government should increase regulations on nuclear power and we as a society should leave this dangerous form of energy in the past because of possible future disasters, the multiple dangers posed to the…

It began with having a lot going on that has involved weapons made out of nuclear fission and probably makes you think if you think if nuclear fission has harmed society. There many examples what good it’s done for us and many harm that it caused. It has allowed us to use it for greater things but also taken advantage of by using it for weapons of destruction. They’ve already used one on people already and killed many. That is not the way using nuclear fission, they use it for threats, power,…

The fluoride cavity-prevention fraud originated in the U. S. in 1939, when scientist, Gerald J. Cox (an employee of ALCOA, the largest producer of toxic fluoride waste in the country) who was being threatened at that time by personal claims of personal fluoride damage) fluoridated his laboratory rats and incorrectly concluded that sodium fluoride reduced dental cavities and, therefore, claimed it should be added to municipal water supplies in the United States (one giant leap for mankind). In…

The world runs on energy. Very few of us would be alive today if it weren 't for the creation of electricity, a creation that has not only changed the world, but is the first technology to bring us beyond. It has quite literally powered everything since the second industrial revolution. With the strong demand by humans to secure energy came the strong desperation to obtain more of it. We quickly needed it for almost every aspect of modern society. Technology spurs from desperation. We quickly…

Nuclear chemistry is unsafe and because the drawbacks outweigh the benefits, it should not be used in modern day technology and science. With its ability to remain for hundreds to thousands of years, and with no safe place to store it, it sucks up space and money. Additionally, the transplant of nuclear waste can be a mark for terrorism, making it even more unsafe. Nuclear, radioactive, radiation, nuclear waste; what do these words bring to mind? Most would think of a superhero, or a deformed…

It is estimated that there are over ten thousand nuclear weapons around the world, and depending on the size of the bomb, it would take as little as two thousand to destroy all of North America and just thirteen thousand more to destroy the entire world. We have all seen the footage of nuclear weapons being detonated; the force of it and the power of it is jaw dropping. We tend to forget just how powerful a nuclear bomb really is. Over the past decades, as technology and knowledge of nuclear…

Pat Frank’s Alas, Babylon has more meaning than just a title of a random book. Randy and Mark Bragg, brothers, knew a nuclear war was coming but did not want anyone to know about it. Mark lived in Omaha while Randy lived in Florida. They would communicate back and forth to each other, via telephone or telegram, and “Alas Babylon” was their codename (Frank 14). Codename was a warning for a nuclear war was coming and if it were to spread to the family, they would all freak out. Alas, Babylon had…
