Our first picture is a staff favorite: the reactor core as seen from the Shim Rod Drive position! Our reactor has 3 B4C control rods - the safety rod, the shim rod, and the regulating rod. The middle schoolers we give tours to think we need better names for them, though 😂☢️
Happy Nuclear Science Week! In honor of this awesome week, we'll be sharing some cool photos of the Reed Research Reactor. Stay tuned!
THE MAN: #OnThisDay in 1901, Enrico Fermi was born. The nuclear physicist is most widely known for leading a team that created the world’s first self-sustaining chain reaction in 1942. 10 facts about the world’s first controlled release of nuclear energy: bit.ly/2KMLFWc
it's official! The faculty of Reed voted yesterday and approved the reactor training seminar as a class at the college! super exciting for this year's training class and the future of our program 😎😎
Register for the ANS-LANL Oppenheimer webinar, Friday August 25th from 11-12:30 Eastern, on the @ANS_org website. If you can't attend live, still register and you'll get a link to watch the recording at your leisure (that's what I'll be doing!) ans.org/news/article-5…
All 157 fuel assemblies are loaded up in Vogtle Unit 4🙌

find out if this cat really can operate a nuclear reactor at our info sessions this week!
We're officially less than a week out from o-week! Do you have questions about our training program? Come to an o-week info session or reactor tour, which are on the orientation schedule. Our training program is open to all first and second-year reedies!
#AcrossTheSpiderVerse shows that all the Spider-People albeit very different are equally important for keeping the Earth safe. Just like all the low-carbon energy sources like nuclear, solar, wind and hydro. What do we want? Energy transition! When do we want it? Now!
Step inside the unique core of @INL's Advanced Test Reactor. It's the largest test reactor in the world and is used to advance nuclear fuels and materials research, create life-saving medical isotopes, and provide heat source material to power future space missions. 🚀
