Errich, is the refrigerator running? This is Mike Hunt, and he's a rich.
Eric Bachman, this is your mother. You are not my son.
"This is you as an old man. I'm ugly and dead alone."
There are some fusion designs that use direct energy conversion.
Some work went into fission designs as well.
And then there are thermonuclear generators
Nuclear power is the refining distilling and enriching of uranium into unstable isotopes and higher elements, boiling water is one small step in converting nuclear energy into electrical energy.
But it’s one of the most important steps because it’s where the actual electricity comes from.
into unstable isotopes
No, they were there all along.
I heard that somewhere in the US there were parts of a nuclear power plant being delivered by steam train. So that’s basically one steam engine supplying another! (^^,)
I can’t seem to find an article about it anywhere, so it might be an urban legend :(
Given that the first commercial nuclear power plants in the US were coming online in the late 1950s, that's entirely possible. Steam trains were well on their way out by then, but there were still a few hauling freight around.
Fun adjacent fact: even when the British Empire had moved off of wind sails and into coal, those coal ships didn't have the range to possibly cover the entire Empire. Coal stations were setup around the world, and the coal had to be transported by sail. The previous technology helps get the next generation technology going.
Sail ships continued to be used well into the 20th century. The absolute last purely sail powered warship served during WW1!
Big Steam is playing us for suckers!
They're just spinning us in circles!
Sheng Wang is hilarious! Seriously, if you like comedy then watch his stuff
Both Jimmy O. Yang and Sheng Wang are hilarious, but you should recognize that they are two different people.
The only Asian standup comedian guy with long hair I know of is Sheng Wang, so i thought the pic was him when he was young. My bad
"what if fire... But... MOAR"
plus a side of extra spicy landfill
That's from building nuclear weapons though, not power
The issue is that boiling water is inside human bodies
Or melting salt, or whatever. But yes it's just making stuff hot.
