| Description | Visit Rhode Island's only nuclear reactor and get an overview of nuclear science and condensed matter physics during this one hour (ish) tour. The Rhode Island Nuclear Science Center (RINSC) serves as the headquarters for the Rhode Island Atomic Energy Commission. Located on the University of Rhode Island's Bay campus, the RINSC is the home of Rhode Island's sole nuclear reactor. The RINSC reactor was built in 1960 and went critical in 1964. It is a 2 Mega-Watt, light water cooled, pool type reactor. For over 50 years it has provided valuable data to researchers and students. This tour is for teens only. Strictly 13+. No younger siblings. Parents may attend OR drop off. Pants and closed-toe shoes are a must. Anyone 18+ will need a government ID. |
