Fermi 1 was the United States' only demonstration-scale breeder reactor, built during the 1950s at the Enrico Fermi Nuclear Generating Station on the western shore of Lake Erie south of Detroit, Michigan.
We Almost Lost Detroit, a 1975 Reader's Digest book by John G. Fuller, [1] presents a history of Fermi 1, America's first commercial breeder reactor, with emphasis on the 1966 partial nuclear meltdown. [2] [3] It took four years for the reactor to be repaired, and then performance was poor.
The Monroe Power Plant is a coal-fired power plant located in Monroe, Michigan, on the western shore of Lake Erie. It is owned by the DTE Energy Electric Company, a subsidiary of DTE Energy. The plant was constructed in the early 1970s and began operating in 1971. [1] The plant has 4 generating units, each with an output of 850 megawatts.
Reporter Felix Veletanga, in a recent story posted on BetMichigan.com's website, noted that Monroe has more ghost sightings than any other Michigan city. “In Monroe, the energy of Halloween ...

By 1935 the group had dispersed and only Fermi and Amaldi continued work together: Rasetti was away for a year in the U.S.; Segrè had a professorship in Palermo, D'Agostino had a job elsewhere in Rome, Pontecorvo was in Paris. [2]: 107,108 Majorana had become reclusive and in 1938 would disappear in unexplained circumstances. [2]: 117
