VIVA West Java – The world of research continues to develop. All innovations never stop. Including in the field of Astronomy, such as scientists in England
They have created a new model of nuclear fuel cell. Its size is very mini, about the size of a poppy seed.
Uniquely, this nuclear fuel cell can power a futuristic flower-shaped reactor on the Moon by 2030.
According to the Live Science website written on Thursday (14/8/2023), the new small fuel cell, developed by researchers at the Nuclear Futures Institute at Bangor University in Wales, is about the size of a poppy seed, which is about 0 cm wide. .04 inch (1 millimeter).
Mini pellets are a type of tri-structural isotropic particle (TRISO) fuel, made of uranium, carbon and oxygen surrounded by a hard, ceramic-like shell.
These cells are much more durable and efficient than traditional nuclear fuel, making them perfect for space exploration.
