Nuclear radiation, on the other hand, originates in the atomic nucleus, where protons repel each other due to their mutually positive charges.
And the accumulated amount of man-made, global warming pollution that is up in the atmosphere now traps as much extra heat energy as would be released by 400,000 Hiroshima-class atomic bombs exploding every 24 hours, 365 days a year.
However, the atomic energy commission relaxed these restrictions in 1959, and depleted uranium returned to ceramics and glass factory floors.
The quarks, these pink things, are the things that make up protons and neutrons that make up the atomic nuclei in your body.
So, one of my most illustrious forebears at Manchester University, Ernest Rutherford, discoverer of the atomic nucleus, once said, "All science is either physics or stamp collecting."
Have no fear for atomic energy 'cause none of them can stop the time.
Linked through the precise timing of atomic clocks, teams of researchers at each of the sites freeze light by collecting thousands of terabytes of data.
Experiments soon confirmed Einstein's model, and atomic skeptics threw in the towel.
I'm starting the story with the first atomic bomb at Trinity, which was the Manhattan Project.
But what this cataclysmic eruption leaves behind might be even more remarkable: a ball of matter so dense that atomic electrons collapse from their quantum orbits into the depths of atomic nuclei.
On July 16, 1945, on the White Sands of New Mexico, an atomic bomb was detonated for the first time.
For example, the distance between the Earth and the Sun changed by one atomic diameter.

Enter the atomic bomb.
And I would like to make a case to you that over the years since we first developed atomic weaponry, until this very moment, we've actually lived in a dangerous nuclear world that's characterized by two phases, which I'm going to go through with you right now.
The United States had developed a couple of atomic weapons through the Manhattan Project, and the idea was very straightforward: we would use the power of the atom to end the atrocities and the horror of this unending World War II that we'd been involved in in Europe and in the Pacific.
This was basically an attempt to teach our schoolchildren that if we did get engaged in a nuclear confrontation and atomic war, then we wanted our school children to kind of basically duck and cover.

And strong interactions are happening millions of times each second in every atom of our bodies, holding the atomic nuclei together.
I have never built an atomic pile.
Although, I might argue that, technically, every pile is atomic.
What you're seeing here is we used telescopes all around the world, we synchronized them perfectly with atomic clocks, so they received the light waves from this black hole, and then we stitched all of that data together to make an image.
We take all these recordings, and with atomic clock precision we align them perfectly, later in a supercomputer.
And, as we've learned in the last few years, galaxies are held together by the gravitational pull of so-called dark matter: particles in huge swarms, far smaller even than atomic nuclei.
And I think we have to go back to what happened in the post-War era, post-World War II, when the nuclear scientists who'd been involved in making the atomic bomb, in many cases were concerned that they should do all they could to alert the world to the dangers.
If you look, for instance, at how lasers work, that would be a case of atomic synchrony.
