Fission is the New Fire
In case you are interested, here is the link to the talk that I gave at the Googleplex on April 16, 2007 – Fission is the New Fire.
Rod Adams is Managing Partner of Nucleation Capital, a venture fund that invests in advanced nuclear, which provides affordable access to this clean energy sector to pronuclear and impact investors. Rod, a former submarine Engineer Officer and founder of Adams Atomic Engines, Inc., which was one of the earliest advanced nuclear ventures, is an atomic energy expert with small nuclear plant operating and design experience. He has engaged in technical, strategic, political, historic and financial analysis of the nuclear industry, its technology, regulation, and policies for several decades through Atomic Insights, both as its primary blogger and as host of The Atomic Show Podcast.

Atomic Show Hiatus
There will not be a new Atomic Show for the next couple of weeks. It is time for an unwired break from both my day job and my atomic avocation. We will have a lot of information to catch up on when I return. Talk to you next month.
Does anyone miss the Atomic Show?
Folks, I have been quite busy the last couple of weeks and have not gotten around to putting together another show. I has occurred to me that now would be a good time to ask – does anyone miss the regular chats about atomic topics? Let me know if you want to hear more shows.
The Atomic Show #029 – Nuclear power in space
Space exploration applications of nuclear power Space exploration is critically dependent on energy sources that are long lasting and can operate in a vacuum. Nuclear power fits the bill, but there have always been objections that limited its applications. Objections notwithstanding there have also been a number of missions where the only real solution was…

great presentantion i have sent the link to all of my friends it explains perfecty my vision of the history of nuclear power
hello
in our fantastic presentation on google you briefly talked about nuclear power cars . i really would like to know more about this.
also many nuclear reactors power plant use diesel engines as backup, why not use small nuclear reactors like an S9G reactor or even the Adams engine as backup.
Another mad nuclear concept that i have had would be possible to built a nuclear power airplane possible UAV with unlimited flight time.
It would look like a mixture of an the Antonov An-70, the E-3 AWACS Airborne Warning and System Control and the LASER ABL YAL 1A AIRBORNE but whit an Teralaser activated by super capacitator banks charged by the nuclear reactor.
And finally I have read on the internet about Nuclear Remediation Technologies, Modifying the Half-Life of Radioactive Isotopes.
