Specifically Plutonium 238 used in Radioisotope Theromoelectric Generators, rather than Plutonium 239 which is used in bombs. 238 undergoes a series of alpha & gamma decays towards stable lead so a lot of the energy remains within the RTG rather than leaking out via beta or gamma rays.
It’s a self-vulcanized screwdriver. It might be wrong but it’ll survive the accident like a cockroach or at least well enough for the forensics crew to identify it as the cause of an accident.
Got out my old chemistry set, a Christmas present in 1962, took it down to my shed. Can't wait to get started on synthesising a little plutonium. Thanks for the tips.
@@braydenh190 There was a teenager who made a nuclear reactor in a shed in the backyard of his home by purchasing a ridiculous number of smoke detectors, but not safely. His whole neighborhood became an EPA site.
@@firearmsstudent the radioactive boy scout, just the tools the kid used had gamma counts above 100k per second. he later went into the navy but was not allowed to talk to the nukes lol
I don’t know why, but this guy giving the tour makes me really happy. There’s something special about seeing such knowledgeable people that love their profession lighting up when asked questions about it.
I'm watching this because a friend of mine is a doctor and he wants me to meet him at the Twin Pines mall to test out a science experiment. He specifically said I should have plenty of plutonium if I don't want to get stuck somewhere. So by learning how it is made, I can always travel BACK TO where I want to go. Wish me luck and hope that nothing goes wrong!
This is really cool. NASA has recently proposed a new really neat design for an RTG (nuclear battery essentially) that would require A LOT of these rods and produce enough energy to support a mission on the Moon. Which is probably what they are needing this for in 2024 and beyond. Eventually newer versions of these RTGs will hopefully end up on Mars and maybe even Titan.
I read last year that NASA was testing small fission reactors which use sodium metal to transfer heat to sterling engines, then to reciprocating generator. U 235/ molybdenum alloy with beryllium neutron reflector. The efficiency was around 20% and was designed to run for years.
Such a lengthy process, for such a sparse production amount, yet for such great purpose. And here, I, the commoner, sit and feel like a genius, whenever I 3D-print a simple object, but complain it takes half a day to do.
Genuinely amazing stuff. It isn't often that the actual chemicals and their cool reactions are almost upstaged by the entire mechanical process and safety measures around them.
Fun fact, the green light on the cylinder at ~4:12 is coming from those Keyence devices (marked DIA 1 and DIA 2). They are optical micrometers and can measure the width of an object to an accuracy of ~1 micron at that distance. Pretty cool!
Some time ago you were able to order Caesium on Amazon. No joke... It was a test sample for geiger counters, and my friend wanted to test his counter. Didn´t took too long for the feds to show up :D
You can see the dosimeter on their chest. Probably a combination gamma and neutron dosimeter. Much more expensive than the standard units I would guess - certainly much larger than what I have worn.
Time, Distance and Shielding. The most important concept you’ll ever learn in Nuc energy. As a recent retiree from the field on the plant maintenance side, Distance is now my absolute favorite safety measure.
This was so thrilling to watch let alone realising that without this incredible chemistry our knowledge of the universe would not be what it is. A brilliant video
Lets put it this way GE has 3000 PhDs in RND and they still cant grow certain nickel alloy crystals perfectly, it has to be done by a select group of 5 or 6 guys in the aerospace department
Some things are just too important to be left to experts. Now back to my shed to finish my room temperature superconductor made entirely of household products!
You people out there are making me so happy. Super happy. Well done. You are iconic heroes in shadows and silent. You are nailing humanity in science. Please keep in your brilliant minds that there people around the earth who are proud of you and your work. How ever we are not be able to do amazing actions for you, but we are looking at you people as the treasures of mankind in its deepest , hardest and widest meaning. I love you ❤.
Off the professor's closing remarks: I work in software engineering for a tier-1 research university in the US, and am currently working on a project that will eventually see use by NASA and actually be used in space exploration. It is a damn adrenaline rush thinking about how something I am working on will eventually further humanity's understanding on space, so I understand this guy's excitement about it completely - it is INCREDIBLY COOL!!
There are so many necessary roles that are required for the possibility of space travel. The chemists, the fabricators, the work crew who built/maintain mission control, the people who handle and transport chemicals, all are unique careers in the background that support the entire industry. An engineer can design a rocket, but one can never R&D without them.
@@dunmermage As far as I remember Cody removed those videos himself after a strong suggestion from the NRC. What the NRC hated the most that he converted Uranium into liquid form, risking groundwater contamination.
. i'm really loving these radiochemistry videos - please do more. Radiochemistry has been my passion since I was 10. I've alwayswanted to see actinide elements in their pure form, ifyou get the chance could you show us some (Neptunium in pure metallic form)
My dad was a structural steel iron worker and his crew put most of the concrete and steel in at Oak Ridge. During that time it was the most secure place in the US. The security there today is still some of the most restricted in the US. This video is interesting but the main job at Oak Ridge is enriching uranium for nuclear weapons.
Fascinating process for creating this energy source. Obviously it's much more complex than what we see in the theaters. Hopefully, someday, we'll find an energy solution that provides a better alternative but until then I'm glad we have some very knowledgeable people to work on this in a protective and safe manner.
A bucket of plutonium would probably be always melted because of the radioactivity lol Permalava that kills you from a distance (now and later , to quote Hank green)
Thank you for answering a question I have always wondered about regarding the shield glass. I first thought it was about a meter of special glass, and the tint was from years of being exposed to hard radiation. Thank you for doing these videos.
"So if I punched a hole in that, a bunch of oil would come out." "Yeah, yeah." What he didn't say was "You'd also die pretty quickly from the radiation" 😂 I love these videos. Thank you for making these!
Surely it wouldn't be that fast- there's no criticality causing massive bursts of radiation, so wouldn't it only pose a long term health risk and put you above your recommended radiation limits pretty quickly, but ultimately not be an immediately life-threatening danger?
I know exactly how to do it now, I just need to send out some feelers to Facebook Marketplace and Craigslist for a neutron reactor, robots, radiation shielding and Neptunium. Easy peasy.
I can't even imagine how much it would cost to set up a place like that, just to actually build and fit out, before you take running costs into it which are no doubt extremely high too.
10 years ago I worked with cnc’s designing parts for company’s. Setting Datums are a major part in keeping tolerances on point. Laser technology I’m sure has come a long way, instead of using micrometers or older methods.

The substances in this video could be mistaken for windshield washer fluid and aluminum if you didn't know what they were.
