    Terraria ( / təˈrɛəriə / ⓘ [ 1]) is a 2011 action-adventure sandbox game developed by Re-Logic. The game was first released for Windows and has since been ported to other PC and console platforms. The game features exploration, crafting, building, painting, and combat with a variety of creatures in a procedurally generated 2D world ...

  3. Molten-salt reactor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molten-salt_reactor

    A molten-salt reactor ( MSR) is a class of nuclear fission reactor in which the primary nuclear reactor coolant and/or the fuel is a mixture of molten salt with a fissile material. Two research MSRs operated in the United States in the mid-20th century. The 1950s Aircraft Reactor Experiment (ARE) was primarily motivated by the technology's ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Terrarium

    Terrarium. A terrarium ( pl.: terraria or terrariums) is usually a sealable glass container containing soil and plants that can be opened for maintenance to access the plants inside; however, terraria can also be open to the atmosphere. Terraria are often kept as ornamental items. A closed terrarium's transparent walls allow heat and light to ...

    Both (real) elements cobalt and thorium can be used in nukes to increase fallout, which agrees with the sense in which "Cobalt Thorium G" is used in the movie. In the "Wages of Fire" episode Big Guy and Rusty the Boy Robot, it is revealed that the BGY-11 is powered by a Cobalt Thorium G power core. Coaxium Star Wars

    Sketch of a pebble-bed reactor. The pebble-bed reactor ( PBR) is a design for a graphite- moderated, gas-cooled nuclear reactor. It is a type of very-high-temperature reactor (VHTR), one of the six classes of nuclear reactors in the Generation IV initiative . Graphite pebble for reactor. The basic design features spherical fuel elements called ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorium-based_nuclear_power

    A sample of thorium. Thorium-based nuclear power generation is fueled primarily by the nuclear fission of the isotope uranium-233 produced from the fertile element thorium.A thorium fuel cycle can offer several potential advantages over a uranium fuel cycle [Note 1] —including the much greater abundance of thorium found on Earth, superior physical and nuclear fuel properties, and reduced ...

  8. Thorium fuel cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorium_fuel_cycle

    The thorium fuel cycle is a nuclear fuel cycle that uses an isotope of thorium, 232. Th. , as the fertile material. In the reactor, 232. Th. is transmuted into the fissile artificial uranium isotope 233. U. which is the nuclear fuel. Unlike natural uranium, natural thorium contains only trace amounts of fissile material (such as 231.
