Why were nuclear weapons even considered to be built?
Fear that someone else would build them first and attack the US or our allies.During World War 2 the "someone" was Nazi Germany and the nuclear weapon was the atomic fission bomb, during the Cold War the "someone" was the USSR and the nuclear weapon was the hydrogen fusion bomb.The US clearly won the race with Nazi Germany as their project derailed early due to multiple errors and oversights by their scientists and the work was redirected away from bombs to prototype reactors, however the US and USSR both developed and fielded practical megaton range hydrogen bombs in the same year: 1955, making that race effectively a tie!!!

What are the economic disadvantages of nuclear power?
Disadvantages of Nuclear Power:· Nuclear Power generates radiation, which can be harmful or even fatal to infected people.· A nuclear meltdown can occur which will release massive amounts of radiation into the community.· Extremely radioactive nuclear waste is produced by nuclear power plants. This stuff can't be just thrown out. The US plans to move all its nuclear was to an underground dump by the year 2010. Currently it is stored in the plants.· Nuclear waste dumps can spontaneously combust without warning.· Nuclear reactors only last for about forty to fifty years, so where they are extremely productive, they break down and are costly to replace.· There are international dangers too. Some reactors produce plutonium which can be used to make nuclear weapons. If the whole world were to use these, they would have unlimited access to nuclear weapons.
