ANS partners with Discovery Place to engage young learners in nuclear science concepts
Imagine a place where children and adults can learn together about nuclear science as a carbon-free energy source that can be an answer to climate change. Guests can experience a cloud chamber, remotely inspect equipment with a drone, and hold a simulated low-enriched uranium fuel pellet. On Saturday, July 6, such a place actually existed for three hours. That place was the Discovery Place Science Museum in Charlotte, N.C. Ryan Leung, a Discovery Place experience specialist, led a team of local nuclear energy industry volunteers and representatives from the American Nuclear Society and Women in Nuclear to organize and execute an Energy Summit.
