Nuclear Science Week - Duck of the Day #234


Today is National Nuclear Science Week. Nuclear science has earned a pretty rough reputation over the years, but it's not all bad! Nuclear science is simply any science involving the nucleus of cells. This includes research in areas like weapons and power, but also consists of a much wider field including medicine and engineering!

There are many things you use today which are only here as a result of research of the nucleus. I cannot find indisputable evidence, but I'm pretty sure rubber ducks are some of them!! (Please comment if you know more about it)

Have a quacktastic day :-)
