Because it's next to Idaho National Laboratory, which at one time had more nuclear reactors than any place on Earth.

It can lay claim to the following credits: * The first town powered by an Atomic Reactor. * Site of Idaho National Laboratory. * Site of the first fatal nuclear reactor failure and radioactive spill. * Home of the Craters of the Moon National Monument.
