caused disability of thousands of people. These were examples of why Weapons of mass destruction like atomic bombs, should be cleared all across the nation. To Start, atomic bombs can cause massive amounts of radiation. The text, Pros and Cons of Nuclear Weapons-List of Facts and Debate, by Abhishek Shah, says, “Contaminated items like clothing, hand tools, water purifier resins.” This evidence shows, that among the people of warfare their items were severely contaminated. These items…

How Uranium affects TP53 Do we know how Uranium affects TP53 to affect our bodies? Uranium is a dense radioactive metal, that is used as fuel in nuclear reactors. Uranium has several isotopes, and the most important of these, are radioactive and presented in nature. This radioactive substance affects our bodies in many contrasting ways. Examples are, our organs, DNA, our tissue, bones, and TP53 gene. In this paper, we will focus most on how Uranium affects TP53 to affect our body. The official…

Historical Use of Anthrax The first anthrax bomb of the West was dropped onto Gruinard Island in 1942. The test was conducted by a British team while American officials observed (Mangold & Goldberg, 2000). The test provided disturbing results about how badly an anthrax weapon could contaminate a targeted area. It took half a century to finally clean up the anthrax contamination but the tests proved that anthrax could be produced, weaponized and transported quite a distance to inflict damage to a…

The Sun is an enormous, extraterrestrial body that is many times larger than Earth. Many scientists have referred to it as a massive nuclear reactor that burns numerous amounts of hydrogen; and just like an actual nuclear reactor, hydrogen is the essential fuel in nuclear fusion reactions. The hydrogen in these fusion reactions fuse together to form beryllium, helium, and lithium atoms. “The temperature on the surface of the Sun is approximately six thousand degrees Celsius. While at its core,…

Nuclear commercial applications would be glowing watches, exit signs, glowing key chains, glowing compasses, rifle sights, and runway markers. Many of these are here today from Tritium illumination. Tritium was predicted in the 1920s by a very smart man named, Walter Russell. Later on, in 1934, Tritium was produced by Ernest Rutherford, who had companions in the production named Mark Oliphant and Paul Harteck. He also needed some help with being able to isolate Tritium, so he also needed help…

entitled “Deadly Deception: General Electric, Nuclear Weapons, & Our Environment” is the documentary film that both horrifies and enlightens the unaware public to the policies and misconduct of General Electric. It spans the spectrum of conversation dealing with GE’s production of nuclear weapons and materials versus its appearance of “Bringing good things to life”. The audience gets exposed to GE’s employees who were adversely and negatively impacted by its nuclear program, and bears witness to…

WSP were developed to protest against nuclear testing, a protest which involved 50,000 women from 60 committees throughout the nation stopped whatever they were doing and walked out and had a one-day protest again nuclear testing. That was one of WSP issue/pretest that made the organization stick out. But, WSP was in some much more than just this one protest. WSP was found in November 1st in 1961, was responding to the United States wanting to have nuclear testing because the Soviet Union was…

fostered the exigence for the prevailing global superpowers, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (USSR) and the United States (US), to develop larger, more destructive nuclear weapons as each side braced its country for the possibility of global, thermonuclear war. By the mid-1950’s, both the US and the USSR developed nuclear weapons that dwarfed the size and destructive power of Fat Boy and Little Man (271). However, neither…

The field of Computer Science owes a lot to the research and innovation of Alan Turing, a man who is popularly referred to as the “father of modern computer science”. Turing is perhaps most famously known for breaking the Enigma machine code, a cipher that was used by Nazi Germany used during World War II for military communication; professor Jack Copeland (2012) suggested that without the information gained from being able to decipher German intelligence, the war may have “continued for another…
