Nuclear Power (2)

Apart from the advantages that were mentioned in my first relevant article I found out some very interesting pros of nuclear power.
First of all, nuclear technology is widely used to preserve some famous paintings and statues. They are also used by technicians so as to recognize if there is a part of the painting destroyed and they can’t see it with naked eye. U.N. has about sixty scientists working on this project in fifteen different countries…
In addition, it is scientifically proven that between 2029 and 2032 some asteroids will come very close to earth and they may actually hit earth. One solution, as scientists claim, is to hit the asteroid before it reaches earth with a nuclear weapon.
What is more, spaceships nowadays use nuclear power in order to have enough power to execute their mission. And maybe, in the future there will be an alternative way to cover their power needs but now nuclear power is the safest and the less expensive…
