Happy December 2nd, a day that marks the first man-made nuclear chain reaction (CP-1, 1942) and the first chain reaction in the first purely civilian nuclear power plant exactly 15 years later (Shippingport, 1957).

A partially stacked set of graphite bricks with uranium spheres in little holes in the middle of some, as CP-1 was being built.

A vessel hanging above the floor with dozens of cables going into it. This is the shippingport pressurizer.
