First of all, your author found a very interesting book about Nuclear Energy. I’ve included a link to the Amazon site for this book in Reference 1 in this paper. If any readers are former employees in this industry like your author, or are otherwise Nuclear Geeks, I believe that you would enjoy this book.
This paper will be about a tragic historical event that quickly bootstrapped the nuclear industry into existence, and remarkable early power reactors with a long list of firsts that were, and are a preview of future reactors.
