Největší výrobce elektřiny na Slovensku podepsal s americkou firmou #Westinghouse smlouvu o dodávce jaderného paliva pro atomové elektrárny. https://www.irozhlas.cz/ekonomika/jaderna-energie-dodavky-paliva-diverzifikace_2308251118_lpr

Via Mike Acs on Flickr, a picture from Westinghouse Electric Corp. of a nuclear rocket-powered Mars spacecraft. Artist unknown, and c.1965.

Some interesting details in this one, like the bottle-suited astronauts working on the foreground stage. I'm always a sucker for mid-century style globes with visible relief too.

The original caption is quite long, so I've put it in the ALT text.

Today in Labor History June 15, 1914: Westinghouse strike, Pittsburgh. The Allegheny Congenial Industrial Union (ACIU) struck against Westinghouse. They were demanding union recognition and protesting against the "scientific management" theories of Frederick Taylor. They also wanted an eight-hour day, reinstatement of fired workers, and higher overtime and holiday rates. Women played a major role in the strike. Bridget Kenny organized marches and recruited workers to join the ACIU. She had been employed by Westinghouse but fired in 1913 for selling union benefit tickets on company grounds.

#Westinghouse unveils small modular #nuclearreactor
The Small modular reactor (#SMR), dubbed #AP300 for its planned 300MW capacity, will not use special fuels or liquid metal coolants unlike some other next-generation #nuclear reactors. It will be a smaller version of its #AP1000 reactor, several of which are operating in #China, and which are ramping up in Georgia at the Vogtle plant, after years of delay and billions of dollars over budget.

What “Electrify Everything” Actually Looks Like – #MotherJones

Get ready for a US building spree not seen in generations.

"In short, it took us about 150 years from the days of #Edison, #Tesla, and #Westinghouse to build today’s grid. Now we have to double the grid’s #electricity generation, using only new, clean resources, in just three decades."

Print still works, foundries.

“As if by magic, the Pentagram team happened to receive a mailer from @signaltype featuring a typeface inspired by Rand's Westinghouse Gothic. Working with Signal, Pentagram manipulated the distinctive ‘;’ and ‘g’ from the Westinghouse logotype to create a new bespoke typeface, Westinghouse Sans.”

@uanews I heard a rumour that his trip is in conjuction with a trade delegation from #Westinghouse. I could be wrong, but my sources are normally pretty accurate,

here's a better picture of the tube layout on the #Westinghouse Model H-166 Radio cabinet. a 5U4G tube is the one that broke in transit. some other tubes are missing.

it's a #Westinghouse Model H-166 Radio with a handy tube chart (that i badly photographed). it has a record player, an AM/FM radio with a tube amp and receiver, and one speaker.

RT @gerardreid14@twitter.com

Prediction No 6: Despite protests from some #German politicians there will be a  #Nuclear comeback and in Europe it will be led by #Westinghouse who will also service the whole set of #Russian reactors in #EasternEurope

alrighty. i got this #westinghouse record player and radio cabinet. sadly it got pretty damaged in shipping (shipper's issue, it was well packaged and on a pallet). is it worth saving the tube amp/radio receiver? is this one of those holy grail amps that sounds incredible? and where do i get a replacement glass decorative plate that goes in front of the tuning dial?

Wszystkie trzy oferty na rozbudowę elektrowni jądrowej Dukovany (Czechy) to te same, które były proponowane Polsce: Mowa o amerykańsko-kanadyjskim Westinghouse, francuskim EdF i koreańskim KHNP.

Na razie to jednak tylko oferty. Nowe energobloki mają być uruchomione do 2036 roku.
