Thank you so much for producing this documentary. It's a story that could easily have been lost. As a daughter of one of those early scientists, Dr. Charles H. Millar, I am very proud of all the scientists and engineers and everyone who delivered this stunning achievement. I even teared up at the end.
An awesome story and as a Canadian I am very much in awe of what the great achievements that have come from the commitments of great people whom have come to collaborate at CNL and thereby have positively affected so many lives globally.
Excellent documentary. It is awesome to see so many unique perspectives about the NRU reactor, and the history of the facility in general. I think this video deserves more attention than it has received.
This was an amazing story, even in my little town in the UK we have been touched by this reactor, I’m a qualified nurse and I knew that the oncology and nuclear medicine departments received stocks that originated in this reactor, This must have been heartbreaking to shutdown the reactor for the last time. Thank you all who worked there for your significant contribution to the world
My father, an electrician helped build both NRX and NRU, worked with Jimmy Carter when they blew the bottom out of NRX, he worked there until he retired from AECL in '79. Deep River is where I grew up.
I had the privilege of getting to work on the crew that did the final weld repairs back in 2010. The NRU will always have a place in my heart. Sad to see it go.
I learned calculations on a slide rule. I could easily get 5 digit accuracy with a slide rule past the decimal. Other more expensive slide rules could get 9 digit accuracy past the decimal. I knew too how to use them. After 9 or 10 digits of accuracy past the decimal methods were calculated on paper with a pencil. When first learning to fly we had a flight computer. Instead of a slide rule it was round. It had the slide rule calculations but was for fuel burn over distance and also navigation and times of discovery of land marks. Boy you should have seen the fancy instruments come out when GPS was first put up and how low the accuracy was even with the most expensive. After 10 or 15 years even the cheapest GPS got so accurate it was amazing. People could see earth movement of inches over ten years so ground movement could be calculated without surveying equipment.
With thorium and the Brayton cycle ya'll don't even need the massive cooling towers or even a nearby river to cool the working fluid unlike the Rankine cycle. With supercritical co2 ya'll could have a turbine that fits on your desk instead of a huge massive steam turbine 15 ft in diameter.
No excuse for CSIRO not to integrate Australian Nuclear Energy Physics via Marc Oliphant's Heritage. Nothing ends in pulse-evolution eventuality, Re-search = Re-iterate, or don't stop now..

Thanks! Please share and encourage others to view.

Absolutely amazing documentary! Brought tears to my eyes.
fantastic video-i recommend seeing the continuation of this at Bruce Power's summer tours taking place now.

A GREAT hommage
I'm 61 and I'd love to be able to just paint walls to be part of this.
Canadians should be proud of this accomplishment and mr trump should take notice and cease the nonsense of taking over or invading Canada.
