On the night before the holiday of Shavuot 1981, Prime Minister Menachem Begin shocked his cabinet by announcing they would be launching a surprise attack called “Operation Opera” on a nuclear reactor in Iraq, known as Osirak. Should the operation fail, the lives of four million Israelis would be at risk, however Begin chose to go ahead with the plan. Despite the large criticism Israel faced in the aftermath, Operation Opera was successful in protecting Israel and preventing Iraqi leader Saddam Hussein from building nuclear weapons.

Cross section of a nuclear waste barrel ☢️ Radioactive waste is a type of hazardous waste that contains radioactive material. Radioactive waste is a result of many activities, including nuclear medicine, nuclear research, nuclear power generation, rare-earth mining, and nuclear weapons reprocessing. The storage and disposal of radioactive waste is regulated by government agencies in order to protect human health and the environment.

The Oscar II nuclear submarine! 🔥 The Oscar II nuclear submarine Was specifically designed during the Cold War to hunt American aircraft carriers, the pride of American naval power Since each carrier is protected by its own strike group of other warships (many of them specialized in antisubmarine warfare) the Oscar’s primary objective isn’t to creep up close for a torpedo attack.. It’s to launch Anti-Shipping Cruise Missiles, or ASCMs, from hundreds of miles away The ten-meter (33ft) long cruise missiles weigh almost eight tons each, and can be launched from underwater NATO’s reporting name for these missiles is literally SS-N-19 “Shipwreck” Credit: @recco_wise 👉🏻 Follow 👉🏻@themillionaire.life_ 👉🏻#themillinorelife Magzine 😍 #russiannavy #submarine #submarines #submariner #nuclearsubmarine #nuclear #nuclearpower #nuclearenergy #nuclearweapons #russianmilitary #sovietnavy #sovietmilitary #sovietunion #ussr #russia #russia🇷🇺 #warship #warships #navyship #coldwar #coldwarera #navyhistory #russiansubmarine #worldwar https://www.instagram.com/p/CO4QOFFLf0P/?igshid=1mdyy89dacmt5

Meet KRUSTY - NASA’s solution to providing electricity ⚡️ to colonists on Mars and the Moon. (Yes, KRUSTY is a reference to the Simpsons TV show!) KRUSTY - which stands for Kilopower Reactor Using Stirling Technology - is a prototype small fission nuclear ☢️ reactor that uses the heat 🔥 from radioactive decay to generate electricity. . Utilizing a Stirling Engine with melted liquid sodium to transfer the reactor core heat to provide rotary motion, these types of engines can generate about 5.5 kilowatts of power ⚡️. . Five or six KRUSTYs as tall as 11 feet could provide enough energy for an outpost on the Red Planet. . KRUSTY could be scheduled to fly to Mars as early as 2022. .
