EPA administrator Lee Zeldin talks the future of nuclear
In a recent interview on New York radio station 77 WABC, administrator of the Environmental Protection Agency Lee Zeldin talked with host John Catsimatidis about the near-term future of the domestic nuclear industry and the role the EPA will play in the sector.
Catsimatidis kicked off the interview by asking if the U.S. will be able to reach total energy independence. Zeldin responded by saying that decreasing energy dependence on other countries, especially adversaries, was a top priority for him and the Trump administration.

Technical Note on Cold Fusion | doi.org/10.13182/FST92-A30111
Articles are hosted by Taylor and Francis Online.
A previous technical note suggests that cold fusion is a small-scale simulation of events that occur in cold stars faraway in the universe. Therefore, it is expected that tiny black holes might be produced during cold fusion. A search for tiny black holes whose traces might have been recorded on nuclear emulsions is described. Several traces suggesting the production and evaporation of tiny black holes have been successfully observed.
