      I have absolutely no idea and I would have to google the answer to find out, which would be cheating as you can do the same yourself 🙂

      Did you know that nuclear power is used by some NASA satellites for long journeys in Space?

      Uhm, no idea. Nuclear power is also used i some submarines, but it is obviously a risk if the submarine has a problem or a leak. Nuclear energy for peaceful purposes is great – but the consequences when somethng goes wrong are huge!
