knowledge is the root of the reaction from society when one hears the word nuclear. At the present time, the United States is home to fewer than one hundred nuclear reactors. The cost of producing nuclear energy is comparable to the energy sources used today, and studies indicate that nuclear energy emits less greenhouse gases, gases that are a contributing factor to climate change and the deterioration of the ozone layer. Concerns arise about the safety of the workers and the public when it comes to
