Nuclear Reactors
Since 1941, more nuclear reactors - over 50 of them - have been built on this plain
than anywhere else in the world.
This 900 - square - mile Idaho National Laboratory
is the birthplace of the Nuclear Navy. Commercial
power reactor prototypes, including reactors that
breed more fuel than they consume were developed
here. Also, internationally renown for tis materials
testing reactlrs and reactor programs, this
laboratory has become a major research
center for developing peaceful
uses of atomic energy.
