Once you have assembled enough fissile fuel in the right geometry and with a suitable moderator, the nuclear chain reaction is easily started. The complication with nuclear technology is to design the overall concept and all the mechanical and instrumentation details in a completely safe way so that any possible fault has been recognised and the consequences have been allowed for, to eliminate the possibility of release of activity to the environment. That is the designers ultimate aim.

Who uses nuclear energy the most and why?
The United States, China, and France are some of the countries that use nuclear energy the most. They rely on nuclear energy to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and provide a stable source of electricity. Additionally, nuclear power is seen as a way to enhance energy security and reduce dependence on imported fossil fuels.

Why was Nuclear Power Invented?
Nuclear power was invented to generate electricity by utilizing the heat produced from nuclear reactions. It was developed as a way to provide a reliable and efficient source of energy to meet the increasing demand for electricity globally. Additionally, nuclear power was seen as a way to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and mitigate greenhouse gas emissions.
Does Sydney have a nuclear power station?
No, Sydney does not have a nuclear power station. Australia does not have any operational nuclear power plants.
When was Hartlepool Nuclear Power Station created?
Hartlepool Nuclear Power Station was created in 1983.
Is it hard or easy to capture nuclear power?
It requires some advanced technology, if that's what you mean.

Why the USA don't like other countries develop their nuclear power?
It's certainly not just the USA and it's not the "nuclear power" their concerned about, it's the by-products of making nuclear power that can be made into nuclear bombs and it's just "certain" country's that may use the nuclear plants to make nuclear bombs or to sell the Uranium to other country's that would make bombs. It would be an easy way for those country's to make easy money. And you can bet that money wouldn't make it to the people of the country that sold it. Think about it a minute, would you like your country's enemy to have access to those ingredients and not yours? It takes a lot of knowledge and responsibly, to the world in genera,l for a country to have nuclear power and let alone the safety aspects of it. Almost every country has had minor or massive accidents with nuclear power. Just look at Japan now, theirs was considered one of the safest nuclear plants in the world.
