Commercial nuclear innovation "new space" age
In early 2006, a start-up company launched a small rocket from a tiny island in the Pacific. It exploded, showering the island with debris. A year later, a second launch attempt sent a rocket to space but failed to make orbit, burning up in the atmosphere. Another year brought a third attempt—and a third failure. The following month, in September 2008, the company used the last of its funds to launch a fourth rocket. It reached orbit, making history as the first privately funded liquid-fueled rocket to do so.
Since the magazine accepted its first advertising in 1960, nearly 40,000 ad pages have been purchased. Join the hundreds of nuclear-related vendors and organizations who make our magazine part of their annual business development strategy.
The magazine reports on the latest developments in the nuclear community, a large part of which concerns nuclear energy – in particular, the hundreds of units that are in operation or forthcoming around the world. Articles discuss plant operations, maintenance and security; policy and legislation; international developments; waste management and fuel; and business and contract award news. Also covered are research and nonpower applications of nuclear science and technology, including nuclear medicine, food irradiation, and space nuclear applications. In addition, the popular ANS News, which contains information for and about ANS members, has been incorporated into the monthly magazine.
