#OnThisDay in 1986, Experimental Breeder Reactor-II performed the Inherent Safety Demonstration Test and proved that #nuclear power plants could be designed to be inherently safe from severe accidents. #70yearsofINL

Vídeo muy chulo del reactor de investigación del MIT. Atención a los elementos combustibles, la sala de control y esos dosimetros "vintage" tipo boli, entre muchos otros detalles. Lástima que en España perdiéramos esta oportunidad para estudiantes e investigadores...
Take a tour of an operating research reactor! This is very cool. #RealReactors youtube.com/watch?v=5QcN3KDe…

Yes of course you technically can refuel once every 30 yrs & transport instantaneously... Remember what Rickover said about paper reactors. Take anything said by folks who haven't done QA, who don't have a tab at the NRC (or other) and who haven't made fuel with a salt shaker.

Replying to @SouthernNuclear
Nothing simple about making electricity. These are just some of the inventions to help make nuclear work.
