How to make electricity.4

Now we started with two options: nulear power and solar panels.

Now what about a third: Aluminum foil.

Again, the principles that underly the nuclear power process are
almost exactly like the combustion process, and the steam engine that
was used to power trains. A chemical procedure that is exothermic
(producing heat) increases the temperature of some liquid until the
liquid evaporates as a gas. This gas is then either directly or
indirectly used to do work on a turbine that moves a generator.

Now, if we want to evaporate a liquid, why not use a solar oven?

Aluminum foil may not be, on the super long term, as cheap as
uranium, but it's cheap and less hazardous and it's legal.

But, don't get me wrong. Solar power panels are cool too.. and you
don't need to hook up a generator to them.

And when we're able to go nuclear, we'll probably use the uranium in
space.. fewer impurities, easier to get, easier to process.
