THE ULTIMATE FAST FACTS GUIDE TO NUCLEAR ENERGY
www.energy.govNuclear fuel is extremely dense. It’s about 1 million times greater than that of other traditional energy sources and because of this, the amount of used nuclear fuel is not as big as you might think. All of the used nuclear fuel produced by the U.S. nuclear energy industry over the last 60 years could fit on a football field at a depth

We show that the origin of society's interest in nuclear energy lies in the fact that much more energy is released per unit mass of a nuclear fuel than per unit mass of a fossil fuel. This is a mixed blessing. It has led to the development of nuclear weapons (see Chapter ...
