The nuclear renaissance is indeed a reality within the United States today. This is apparent from the number of nuclear plant construction applications and new uranium mining applications filed with or expected by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, as well as the major merger-and-acquisitions activity within the nuclear industry. This renaissance stems from such factors as concern over global warming, nuclear energy's advantages over competitor fuels, a significant increase in public and governmental support, major scientific and technological developments, and the financial community's increasing interest in nuclear energy. But, a number of factors could still undermine the success of nuclear energy - such as workforce and component manufacturing constraints, the recent "Wall Street me...

Does it not seem strange that Iran, with excessive supplies of petroleum, should be desperately seeking to create electrical energy by atomic power, while America, having abandoned atomic power, is desperately seeking additional sources for petroleum? How is it that France, Japan, Russia, China, and India can exploit the advantages of atomic power while the United States cannot? Just before his assassination, President John F. Kennedy announced that America would put a man on the moon and bring him back before the end of the decade. After his assassination, that goal became "sacred" and could not be challenged.
