The pitfalls of 'going nuclear'

<p>Reports that the energy ministry is conducting a feasibility study into developing small nuclear power plants have been met with mixed reactions -- from welcome, mainly by the energy and industrial sectors, to reluctance and fear.</p>

…the dance of fear and ignorance

The US Air Force Strategic Air Command’s B-52s, laden with nuclear weapons, were constantly in the air during much of the Cold War.

Fear of a Soviet ICBM first strike, which might annihilate America’s ground-based nuclear strike force, made these flights necessary.

Tina Cordova: What ‘Oppenheimer’ doesn’t tell you about the Trinity test

July is a hard month for a lot of us here in New Mexico, where thousands of people’s lives were upended by the test of the world’s first nuclear bomb. The events of July 16, 1945, weigh heavily on us. And why wouldn’t they? They changed everything. The people of New Mexico were the first human test subjects of the world’s most powerful weapon.
