DID YOU KNOW🤔: “Flying in an airplane, eating bananas and carrots, sunbathing, getting medical scans, and simply living on planet Earth all expose a person to more radiation than living within 50 miles of a nuclear power plant.” 🤯

It was an honor to host “Energizing the Modern Age” @INL . Let’s all collectively agree to walk out of here and do something rather than argue about it.

Big things can come in small packages📦
Learn more about micro-reactors at energy.gov/ne/articles/big-p… & if you’re up for a challenge submit a design (drawing, picture, etc.) that shows how micro-reactors could play a role in the next 20 years 🖌️

Micro-reactors are ultra-hardened 💪, ultra-safe and highly efficient systems that can operate for 10 years or more without refueling.

The BIG potential for nuclear micro-reactors
These small nuclear systems could be game-changers for the industry.

Imagine how much land would be left alone for nature if one small modular reactor could be installed instead? What happened to the idea of #conservation? #NuclearPower #SaveTheNukes

Out of this world: Powered by a Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generator assembled and tested here @INL, @NASANewHorizons has returned the first images of #UltimaThule, the most distant object ever explored by spacecraft!
Meet #UltimaThule! What you’re seeing is the 1st contact binary ever explored by a spacecraft. This object, which we can now see is a contact binary, used to be 2 separate objects that are now bound together. Watch for more @NASANewHorizons science results nasa.gov/live
