Tim Gregory, a nuclear chemist at the UK National Nuclear Laboratory, transitioned from dating meteorites to working with nuclear power. He analyzes nuclear reactors and the purity of nuclear medicine. Through his book, 'Going Nuclear,' he shares the potential of nuclear science in addressing global challenges like climate change and energy demands. With renewed public interest and governmental investments in nuclear power, a renaissance in nuclear energy may be on the horizon, highlighting both its possibilities and risks.
"Of all the branches of modern science, nuclear science in particular bears fruit that can help solve some of the most daunting challenges that beset us."
"The rise of AI and its accompanying around-the-clock electricity demands have prompted companies and governments to extend the operation of current reactors, restart old ones, invest in new technologies, and ease regulations."
