mclrn227 Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 nothing has had the same affect on me as the mechanics of nuclear reactions. its almost a scared but respectful state of awe. even to drive past a plant, you look and think about the kind of power that is being harnessed and controlled. its one of those things that makes you go silent and you just stare. with a million things running through your mind, and at the same time nothing running through your mind. a feeling that nothing else can produce. like seeing a vial of smallpox in containment or something. Ive also always been amzed with Ebola virus and Smallpox. its inexplicable. there are no words... nuclear fission and "dark biology"
insane_alien Posted April 1, 2007 Posted April 1, 2007 chemical plant leave me i awe. i mean theres so much complexity to them and its all got to be finely controlled and maintained to keep operating. Thats probably why i decided to study chemical engineering. nuclear power plants are in this catagory but they are relatively simple compared to a lot of other chemical plants. they are also very similar to traditional coal power plants, just a different heat source. still awesome(in the literal sense) though.
