Here’s an article that may be of the members’ interest. Chemical and Engineering News published a cover story about the latest development in Yucca Mountain repository for nuclear waste. It has a comprehensive review for the history and experts’ opinions on this issue, but not much new information. For the full text, check out the link: The Forever Waste .

For those who are following the element 122 discussions, a fellow DNCT member wrote an excellent review on the validity of their data. To learn more or join the discussion, check out Addressing Marinov’s Element 122 Claim.
