Atomic Projects

Universal just dropped a new trailer for Oppenheimer, which is slated to release July 21 in theatres. In it, Cillian Murphy plays the titular theoretical physicist, Robert J. Oppenheimer, leading the development of the Manhattan Project, set during World War II. The film also stars Robert Downey Jr., Matt Damon, Emily Blunt, Florence Pugh, and Gary...

The Doomsday Clock has been ticking for 76 years, but on Tuesday, it was set at 90 seconds until midnight, the closest to the hour it has ever been. The midnight has a symbolic meaning - representing the point of annihilation.

Christopher Nolan’s Oppenheimer just got a full-length trailer, showcasing a tense Cillian Murphy murmuring about the trials and tribulations of creating the first atomic bomb. In it, he plays the titular theoretical physicist Robert J. Oppenheimer, leading the development at the Manhattan Project, set during World War II. The film also stars Rob...

With the first pour of concrete for a 700 MW atomic power plant in Karnataka's Kaiga scheduled in 2023, India is set to put in motion construction activities for 10 'fleet mode' nuclear reactors over the next three years.

Mitsubishi Heavy Industries said Thursday it will work with Japan's atomic energy agency to provide technical assistance to a US start-up run by Bill Gates that is building a next-generation nuclear reactor in Wyoming.

Christopher Nolan’s next movie is reportedly about J. Robert Oppenheimer, the father of the atomic bomb. Nolan is returning to World War II after Dunkirk, but he might not be going back to Warner Bros., as talks are ongoing with Sony, Universal, and Paramount.

To increase standardisation and bring modularity in building atomic power reactors, the Nuclear Power Corporation of India Limited or NPCIL is going for fleet mode construction for future projects, Department of Atomic Energy Secretary KN Vyas said on Friday.

New, more advanced and safe fuel will be reloaded into the two running reactors of the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project or KNPP and also into the subsequent units being built in Tamil Nadu with the technical assistance of the Russian national atomic power corporation Rosatom, according to a senior company official.

India said today it is collaborating with Russia to build the Rooppur nuclear power plant in Bangladesh, the first initiative under a Indo-Russia deal to undertake atomic energy projects in third countries.

The first 1,000 MW atomic power unit at the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project (KNPP) restarted generation after completion of refuelling today, said an official.

The second 1,000 MW atomic power unit at the Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project (KNPP) that suffered an outage on Monday due to a problem in its steam dump valve is expected to start operations on Friday, said a senior official of Nuclear Power Corporation of India Ltd (NPCIL).

The Russian-built Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project (KNPP) in Tamil Nadu could, in the near future, be operating on the newer generation TVS-2M fuel assembly, which offers increased uranium capacity, improved heat reliability and enhanced operational safety, a senior Russian official has said.

Iran said on Tuesday it had reached an agreement with France to take part in a multi-national nuclear fusion project, a year after it struck a deal with six world powers to curb its own atomic programme.

The second unit of Kudankulam atomic power project in Tamil Nadu is expected to go critical on Sunday, SK Sharma, Chairman and Managing Director of Nuclear Power Corporation of India (NPCIL), said on Saturday.

The Kakrapar Atomic Power Station (KAPS) unit 1 in Gujarat, which has been shutdown since March due to radioactive leak, may still take nearly 3-8 months for full recovery.
