Q&I

That’s 5 times the surface temperature of the sun! Keep in mind that this is just its surface temp. The core of the Sun reaches several million degrees, which is much more than lighting strikes.

Uranus is indeed rich in extremely flammable gases, methane and hydrogen but the burning of these gases requires oxygen. While we take oxygen for granted on Earth, Uranus simply doesn’t have enough for the flammable gases to burn.

Graphite is used in nuclear reactors as a moderator. A nuclear moderator decreases the speed of neutron release allowing it to control the nuclear chain reaction. Carbon atoms in graphite can absorb the high kinetic energy that neutrons have when emitted in a fission process.
Nuclear fission reactors are based on the production of neutrons via fission processes.
Why would we want to slow down the release of neutrons? We want the neutrons to be captured by active nuclei such as uranium-235. For this to happen efficiently, without a nuclear moderator, we need to use enriched uranium (>3–5% of U-235). With a moderator, we can use natural or un-enriched uranium(LINK), much easier to access.

Both of them account for 98% of all matter, being roughly 73% hydrogen, and 25% helium. All the other elements make up the remaining 2% of matter. The next in the list is oxygen, making up for a tiny 0.05%. Other atomic components in this order of magnitude are neon, nitrogen, carbon and silicon.

This is the largest rainforest on Earth. Its basin covers 40% of the South American continent and it’s where most of the oxygen in the atmosphere comes from.

Careers in medical education, teaching, and academia involve training future healthcare professionals, conducting medical research, and contributing to medical curriculum development and innovation.

Opportunities exist for medical professionals to work in global health initiatives, humanitarian aid organisations, disaster relief efforts, and non-governmental organisations (NGOs) addressing healthcare disparities and crises worldwide.

Careers in biomedical engineering involve designing, developing, and testing medical devices, prosthetics, implants, and diagnostic equipment to improve patient care, rehabilitation, and quality of life.

With the increasing digitization of healthcare, careers in healthcare informatics, health IT, electronic medical records (EMR) management, telemedicine, and medical software development offer avenues for innovation and improvement in healthcare delivery.

Opportunities exist in public health, epidemiology, health policy, and healthcare administration for professionals focused on disease prevention, health promotion, population health management, and healthcare system improvement.

Careers in medical research involve conducting clinical trials, scientific research, and drug discovery to advance medical knowledge and develop new treatments, therapies, and medical technologies.

Traditional medical careers include becoming a physician, surgeon, specialist, or general practitioner, providing direct patient care, diagnosis, treatment, and preventive healthcare services.

Little improvements go a long way in your success journey.
