My life completely changed with one tweet. This was back in 2015 when Twitter was mostly a place we went to see what Kanye was mad about. But then I saw it. A tweet by a scientist I deeply admire, Dr. Carolyn Porco. Wait, I thought nuclear energy was bad. Yet here is a scientist and a TED speaker making it sound good. It sent me on a journey, I spent years reading papers, talking to scientists, and I always asked them the same question: What do you think about nuclear power? Their responses were shockingly similar. It's good. We need it. People hate it.
