    If you are a twin, a third of a triplet, or more, you are an Isotope. Isotopes were once considered the most sought after division. After the nuclear war, that all changed. Losing their seat of power, they became the most feared division. By law, all Isotopes are sentenced to death at birth. Triplets Issabelle, Mirabelle, and Annabelle were able to survive for seventeen years, unseen. The moment one of them has a lapse of judgement and leaves the house, she brings home trouble. This is a short story I came up with for a Chemistry project when I was in 11th grade. This world and its characters are based off and centered around the periodic table of elements. Disclaimer: The representation of chemical elements and the like may not be a hundred percent accurate. Keep in mind, this story was made by a student.

    H.Becquerel found uranium emitted radiation and, in1898, M.Curie extracted minute traces of radium from ore. J.Maxwell predicted electro-magnetic radiation in 1855 and Einstein formulated special relativity; mass could be converted into energy. In 1905, E.Rutherford found radon gas emitted helium nuclei. In 1919, F.Aston identified 212 naturally occurring isotopes. But why was the atomic weight of helium exactly 4.000 and not 4.032? In 1925, Rutherford transmuted nitrogen into an isotope of oxygen. By 1934, J.Chadwick had found neutrons emitted by polonium and E.Fermi had transmuted uranium into plutonium. Fermi's research reactor went critical in 1942. The 235-uranium was extracted at Oak Ridge, while plutonium was produced in Washington state and the first atom bomb exploded in New Mexico in 1945. Two more atom bombs destroyed Hiroshima and Nagasaki, ending the war with Japan. The first practical nuclear power plant was developed for submarines and, by 2021, 442 fission reactors supplied about 10% of the world's electricity. WHO THE HELL ARE WE? is a series of short books and videos describing the evolution of civilization. Almost everyone on the planet is five times wealthier than their ancestors only 50 years ago. This astonishing phenomenon has also improved health, education, and longevity. The cause; an explosive growth in ideas and productivity. It began when we learned to control fire, evolved articulate speech and stumbled onto the way to create infinite wealth; free trade. The discovery of agriculture made us richer but we also learned how to destroy wealth. Great civilization grew up but then disappeared leaving only incredible ruins and ideas. Later books detail some of the ideas and developments that increased the average life span from about 40 years to more than 80 and the average world income from less than $3 to more than $33 per person per day (and to $140 per day in some countries).

    What comes to mind when someone sees the sign of nuclear power? A terrible slow painful death from radiation poisoning, or how about weapons of incredible mass destruction? It might well be a beautiful and misunderstood feat of engineering. Nuclear energy has the highest capacity factor of any other green energy source. The world is pretty broken because of climate change and global warming, and this works aims to present the answer to solving a lot of this. Sure, there is wind, solar and hydroelectric power but they all lack reliability. The sun is not always shining, and the wind is not always blowing. In this work, reasons will be given to show why nuclear energy is the most reliable, safe, and green energy source.
