Atomic Energy
The badge David was determined to get was the Atomic Energy badge. The requirements for this badge are as follows: The Boy Scout must be able to explain some terms related to nuclear energy, build some 3D models of atoms and draw a picture of how nuclear fission takes place.
In addition, he must be able to explain how different scientists had contributed to the field, write an argument about how and why people should be careful with nuclear energy and build three other instruments that have to do with nuclear energy. What better way to get acquainted with the theory than by putting it into practice?
David decided to build a nuclear reactor in his backyard. What could go wrong?
