Nuclear power itself does not kill you unless there is a steam explosion like at Chernobyl. It is the radiation either from fission products or direct neutron bombardment which will do that, and the effects of excessive radiation are well known and documented.

Nuclear reactions are used in nuclear power plants to generate electricity, in nuclear weapons for military purposes, in medical imaging and cancer treatment, as a power source for spacecraft, and in food irradiation to kill bacteria and increase shelf life.
No, Sydney does not have a nuclear power station. Australia does not have any operational nuclear power plants.
Hartlepool Nuclear Power Station was created in 1983.
Nuclear power plants do not produce greenhouse gas emissions during operations, so climate change is not a direct risk associated with nuclear power. However, other risks such as radioactive waste, potential for accidents, and nuclear proliferation are concerns related to nuclear power.
No. Not enough uses that slowly kill you and are extremely explosive.
455,006,789 in a Japanese plant
It is, but it is not very descriptive. How about"Nuclear weapons are devices created to kill many with extreme heat and explosive power."

No one should have nuclear weapons! I agree they cause nothing but problems. All they do is grant people power to kill and strike fear in the world. There is nothing good that can come from nuclear weapons.
Nuclear power is produced through two processes: Nuclear Fission and Nuclear Fusion.
No. Nuclear power is not based on biology. It is based on nuclear physics.
It is 28% nuclear power.
