We have been living in the nuclear age now for over half a century. Since the first atomic bombs were developed, nuclear technology has provided governments with the ability to totally destroy the plant. Yet the technology has been put to a positive use as an energy source and in certain areas of medicine.
To what extent is nuclear technology a danger to fife on earth ? What are the benefits and risks associated with its use ?

Nuclear energy is the energy dissipated by radioactive substances such as uranium, radium etc. These type of energies are produced in large reactors because the amount of energy released is extensively high. These type of substances are rare to find and whenever found are sized by the government due to high radiations emitted by them. Now a common question arises to what extent is nuclear technology a danger and what are its benefits. Let’s move ahead and discuss the topic in detail.

Nuclear technology is in use from over half a century and is still currently in use. Nuclear technology is both a boon as well as curse. Firstly moving with advantages it is complex field and requires a lot of safety. These metals when under correct conditions react in light chain reactors release a lot of energy which is converted into electricity. Nuclear Power plants are a perfect example. In addition to it has great advancement in health industry. The technology is used to cure cancer. It is a boon for cancer patients. Furthermore, it has great scope in the domain of chemistry various experiments would lead to new inventions which will be of great use for human race.

Every coin has two sides. Similarly, nuclear technology has highly dangerous disadvantages. Firstly, due to high release of energy it is used in warfare industry. It is to make warfare weapons and atomic bomb. They are so dangerous than within a span of time could eradicate a fully furnished country. These bombs are often made by countries and stored in order to scar other countries and pose a threat to them. In addition to, the radiations emitted could cause serious health issues. All these aspects are not only but nuclear technology.

In conclusion to the above topic one can say that nuclear technology is boon as well as curse. It depends on for what purpose it is being used for.
