Nuclear Power Plants are honestly something that shouldn't be overlooked, or feared. Would save us from so much in terms of waste and gaseous byproducts.
@soulknife20 Nah, not just them, people just assume it'll break down and either explode or irradiate everyone, and don't realize that Russia and Japan had very isolated situations occur for them
There's actually some funny things coming from thoae who protested against nuclewr power in the 60s 70s and 80s now stating that they probably shouldn't have protested against it because compared to all the other Technologies we have nuclear is probably the best until we at least get Renewables fully up
@Real-Ruby-Red both now engineering issues... easily solved. With advances in battery tech that problem is less and less a issue. If we ever get room temperature superconductors then energy storage becomes a moot point.
13:00 - your friendly reminder that Uncle Sam has a plan to keep you safe in underground secure luxury shelters, that will have no negative consequences whatsoever, so even with the still present threat of total nuclear annihilation you can rest assured that you can enjoy a brighter future, underground. Brought to you by Vault-Tec.
Nuclear Power is crucial in the fight against climate change, it provides a critical base load that is always on, something that neither solar nor wond power can do.
If it's already in capacity tho. We won't fight climate change by switching to reactors that need 40 years to be constructed anew and that's not even with delays
@@lukasholtkamp7614 Better late than ever, simply put the need for power will only increase and thus focusing more effort on Nuclear would be beneficial nevertheless even if it takes time. Not everything can be so quickly done
14:00 sadly we dont have a way of sustained nuclear fusion yet...if we figure that out, we won. almost infinite energy, no way for it to melt down, very little radiation.
The tech race is certainly on, it is possible that manmade fusion energy that is manageable will come before 2040. The US, China, EU and Britain are the leading figures in this tech race. Presumably within 20 years all of the mentioned above would have harness the actual power of the sun.
Precisely! And in most of these bomb designs uranium and plutonium tampers and casings are designed to contribute significantly to the blast yield. In fact the 100 Mt proposed design of Tsar Bomba was designed for about half the blast yield to come from third stage fission reactions of its tamper, which was omitted from the bomb design to cut down on the yield for the test version. Even the term H-bomb is misleading since thermonuclear devices often include lithium for fusion fuel.
They didn't know what they're research would lead, alot of scientific breakthroughs are both good for civilian use and bad cause of military use. The good in this one is nuclear energy. It's a really efficient method to produce electricity for large areas of populations. The bad well the obvious, the bombs that are extreamly destructive and holds the wolrd in the MAD doctrine. Who knows when a country will break this doctrine and finally launch but it could soon, later or never. It truly is a maddening time we live in when whole nations can be wiped out in a blink of an eye and many nations have this power.
You seem to be fixed on the old style Nuclear plants. The new ones are modular, built in factores, and can't melt down. As Japan disaster, it melted down because there was no power to the pumps.They were not allowed to use nuclear power plant to run its own pumps, insread it had to be external power, which was down. Also, the military and commercial companies have been using radiation to sterilize food for over 60 dears. They just don't want to talk about it. If you don't want to burn fossil fuels, nuclear power is the only reliable source.
Nuclear power is not the only reliable alternative source to fossil fuels. Wind in certain regions are just as reliable as nuclear and conventional fossil fuel power stations. Solar (I've worked for the past year modelling solar alternatives to steam boilers in Europe for industrial processes, not perfect but a good option for much of the year, and far cheaper than nuclear). The fuel everyone seems to ignore is biogas. Any source of organic material can be used as a feedstock, the infrastructure is already in place, and the burning of biogas is carbon neutral as the breakdown of organic matter naturally releases the same quantity of carbon dioxide. The issue with the nuclear argument is that people argue for it as a silver bullet, there is no simple, easy answer. To move away from fossil fuels, you need to utilise a range of alternatives for energy security.
My grandfather claimed that nuclear bomb saved his life. He was Polish volunteer serving on British destroyer during IIWW. When Germany fell, my grandfather was reassigned to the Pacific and he was freaking out. To him and his fellow crewmembers Pacific front was a meatgrinder, that this time they won't be so lucky... His fleet nearly arrived and suddenly war just ended. I felt really strange when I heard this story. I thought that nuking Japan was total overkill but its not that simple. Its bizzare how unpredictible consequences this invention had.
I just realized that Armchair Historian _hasn't_ actually done a full, dedicated video about nuclear weapons before, let alone nuclear technology at large, but now that they have, they've become death, the destroyer of history UA-camrs!
You fill me with hope for the future, and i actually learned from the video! I am a big fan of nuclear energy and its uses, and this video really shows that nuclear energy while dangerous it is just too good to be unused, thank you for making this video

Hey armchair historian I hope you see that I want you to do a serie about the arab spring in 2011 and all the civil wars and changes that happened in the arab world
Nagasaki wasn’t the original target to drop fat man instead it was the city of Kokura but due to clouds and smoke from previous bombing raids it was impossible so they flew to the secondary target which was Nagasaki
Doing a video on battle of cuito cuanavale would be very interesting it was one of the biggest battles in Africa between the South African armed forces and Cuba / Angola its hardly covered at all on UA-cam which is sad..
Why do people have a problem with nuclear plants in their town, but don't have a problem with sending their sons and daughters on nuclear powered ships in the military?
You forgot the fallout over the U.S.A. New Mexico and surrounding states. A movie, with John Wayne, called Genghis Kahn, I think. Most of the actors etc. died later of cancer related illnesses. Young woman, girls, that were playing outside, saw "snowflakes" falling on them. The "snowflakes", were nuclear fallout. I think it's important to give as many horrific situations, when it comes to weapons. I don't think you did forget or did research on these infamous situations.
@@aldrinmilespartosa1578 The movie tidbit is actually a common myth, however the young girls who were playing outside and were blanketed with Fallout is very true, it was during the Trinity test.
People look at Nuclear power as if they fear we are gonna end up like the Fallout universe post apocalypse. Where In reality we might get so advanced we might end up like the Fallout universe pre apocalypse.
The Nuclear Family by Ari Beser. Story of the author’s grandfather involvement in the bombings of Hiroshima & Nagasaki as well as survivors accounts from the aftermath of the bombing.
My teacher for science was a nuclear physicist and she was at Chernobyl and told our class cause her daughter was in my class about why she stopped doing it because she had to tell a Ukrainian boy we wouldn’t last a day from radiation and then she moved to canada and became a teacher in a town of 1000 people and she is one the most wonderful smart people ever

@TheArmchairHistorian You are talking in the beggining of the video about "Nuclear fission". The bombs arent working with nuclear fission but with nuclear fusion
I recommend Weinberg's _A World At Arms_ (single volume history of WWII) for a proper historical reckoning of the nuclear bombing of Japan if anyone is interested.
The reason why Chernobyl was so devastated was because of Kremlin not wanting to believe it happened. But there delusions would come at a cost The cost of millions of life and an barley imaginary amount of money
If we what to create better AI we will need alot of power for that. That's why alot of big tech companies commissioned for the construction of 4 reactors to power these developments.
"Mr. Oppenheimer the biggest bomb ever built that we've been working on for the past 5 years, the ricecooker 3000, has been dropped on japan" "NOOOOOOOO WTF HOW COULD THIS HAVE HAPPENED?? I CAN'T LIVE WITH MYSELF😭😭😭😭" seriously wtf was his problem? What did he think was going to happen?
As I see it the only way humanity will stop using Nuclear Power completely is to find a source of power that's greater and maybe safer. Also a little cheaper. But what that could be, I don't know. Nice video.

It relies on both, since you need the energy of a nuclear fission bomb to start the nuclear fusion bomb.

🤓 "um actually that's wrong"
I am only joking but the way you said that sounded like 🤓
It's kind of terrifying how little these early scientists knew about the horrors they were playing around with.
As Oppenheimer once said, "Now I am become Death. The destroyer of worlds".
@@azurehorizon6097animal mother said that too
So horrible how those scientists invented a bomb that would prevent massive wars several times over

The good in this one is nuclear energy. It's a really efficient method to produce electricity for large areas of populations.

As someone from Hiroshima, I cannot express how often I get asked if Hiroshima is safe like I literaly just told you I lived there??? Also the G7???
This wouldve been great if this was released during the release of fallout tv show
