Wylfa nuclear power plant plans go ahead, creating Anglesey jobs

Three small modular reactors are confirmed for the site, with the potential for up to eight.

Hình ảnh rò rỉ trên mạng xã hội cho thấy Trung Quốc đang phát triển lò phản ứng hạt nhân, có thể dùng cho tàu sân bay thế hệ mới. Điều này cho thấy bước tiến lớn trong năng lực hải quân và mở rộng sức mạnh quân sự. Nếu xác nhận, đây sẽ là bước nhảy vọt trong chiến lược hàng hải của Bắc Kinh. #TrungQuoc #TauSanBay #HatNhan #QuanSu #China #AircraftCarrier #NuclearReactor #Military #NONE

The Register

There is one pool type #nuclear research reactor in Greece. Its construction started in 1959 and its operation in 1961. It is located at the National Centre for Scientific Research (#Demokritos) in Athens and it generated 5 MW of power.

It was shut down in 2004. Initially for an upgrade to 10 MW power, but it was not followed up and the reactor is currently under decommissioning.

NASA plans to build a nuclear reactor on the Moon—a space lawyer explains why

Nuclear power could be the linchpin for long-term human activity.

It is not clear what the #NuclearReactor will power. A reactor would be useful for long-term stays on the #moon, but #NASA’s plans do not specify when a base might be built https://www.nytimes.com/2025/08/04/science/nasa-moon-nuclear-reactor.html

Israeli evacuation threat targets area around Iran’s Arak heavy-water nuclear reactor

As part of negotiations around the 2015 deal, Iran agreed to sell off its heavy water to Western countries. Even the US purchased some 32 tonnes of heavy water for more than $8m in one deal.

IAEA inspectors reportedly last visited Arak on May 14.
