US Nuclear Corp designs manufacture and markets a branded

  US Nuclear Corp  is a fully-reporting, publicly traded holding company on the Over-the-Counter Bulletin Board, traded under the OTCQB symbol UCLE. The Company's operations are principally engaged through its divisions, operating three globally recognized nuclear radiation detection companies, Optron Scientific Company Inc. dba Technical Associates, Overhoff Technology Corp., and ECC Electronic Control Concepts. US Nuclear Corp’s divisions design, manufacture (Made in the U.S.A.) and markets a branded, full line of radiation and chemical detection instrumentation including specialties such as drone-based aerial radiation and chemical detection, advanced Tritium and Carbon-14 monitoring technology, and real-time continuous water monitoring. US Nuclear Corp provides measurement instrumentation for the nuclear energy industry and for emerging energy technologies such as Fusion, Small Nuclear Reactors (SMRs), and Thorium Molten Salt Reactors (TMSRs) both domestically and globally.

Safety Through Aerial Robotics

The Drone Sensor Series utilizes all-weather commercial heavy-lift UAVs with industrial-grade material designed for ease of use and quick deployment for radiation and chemical detection. The all-carbon-fiber frame construction gives the copter strength while making it incredibly lightweight. These UAVs are manufactured in a NATO country thus satisfying various U.S. government agencies’ security concerns. The commercial-grade brushless motors are highly efficient robust and offer hundreds of hours of worry-free flying. The Drone Rad NEO is an octocopter with eight engines for redundancy and the ZOE quadcopter both have a folding frame for easy transporting. Other features include GPS position hold, automatic return to home, intelligent flight modes, and optional waypoint capability. All components are housed in a weatherproof canopy and both UVs are capable of flying in wind, rain, and snow. Wireless video downlink and flight telemetry overlay provide real-time data to the ground statio

Detecting Radiation

Although many radioactive materials are silver-colored, metallic solids in their pure state, they can vary in color and exist in different physical states, including liquids and gases. They are also physically indistinguishable from other (nonradioactive) metals. In addition, ionizing radiation is not detectable by one's senses. It cannot be seen, heard, smelled, tasted, or felt. For these reasons, simple visual inspection is insufficient to identify radioactive materials, and radiation sources can be virtually impossible to recognize without special markings. To address these problems, scientists have developed the following four major types of instruments to detect and identify radioactive materials and ionizing radiation: Personal Radiation Detector (PRD) Handheld Survey Meter Radiation Isotope Identification Device (RIID) Radiation Portal Monitor (RPM) Personal Radiation Detector (PRD) A PRD is a wearable gamma and/or neutron radiation detector, approximately the size of a page

New Advances in Special Drilling Devices for Space Surveying & Mining Missions to the Moon and Beyond

  Los Angeles, CA.  August 23, 2021 – On August 15, 2021, US Nuclear’s (OTCQB: UCLE) partner Adam Jan Zwierzyński of Solar System Resources published a report on his research, prototyping, and testing of space drilling and extraction systems with the goal of developing fully autonomous mining robots for mining high-value minerals and elements from the moon, Mars, comets, and asteroids. The paper was published in ‘Energies’ journal and was written by  Adam Jan Zwierzyński , Wojciech Teper, Rafał Wiśniowski, Andrzej Gonet, Tomasz Buratowski, Tadeusz Uhl, and Karol Seweryn. It was a collaboration between the Department of Drilling and Geoengineering at AGH University of Science and Technology and the Space Research Centre of the Polish Academy of Sciences. It discusses the dire global climate crisis and the need for ecological sources of energy and mining methods that could solve the problems before it is too late. Space is becoming a new area of possible drilling applications with the p

US Nuclear Takes up 5% Stake in Space Mining Pioneer Solar System Resources

Los Angeles, CA.  June 9, 2021 – On June 4, 2021, US Nuclear (OTCQB: UCLE) signed an agreement to take a 5% stake in Solar System Resources Corporation Sp. z o. o., thus advancing US Nuclear’s portfolio of high-tech startups. US Nuclear and Solar System Resources decided to keep the details of the transaction private. Solar System Resources is a space mining company that conducts localization, in-situ verification, and mining of space resources. US Nuclear will cooperate with Solar System Resources and other partners to build a value chain starting with mining and selling valuable helium-3, lanthanide metals, and other vital or precious materials from space deposits. This is just the latest investment of US Nuclear , which can be viewed as a holding company and incubator with stakes in highly innovative and promising companies. US Nuclear owns 100% of its three main operating divisions, including Technical Associates, Overhoff Technology Corporation, and ECC X-ray, and a minority stak

OAKLAND AND DOWNEY DEMOS – US NUCLEAR CORP

US Nuclear Corp and UAV partner FlyCam UAV were invited to participate in two demonstrations for their UAV mounted Radiation Detection system, the DroneRAD. On January 30, 2019, the BAYEX 2019 took place in the Oakland Coliseum in Oakland, California. The objective of the exercise was to coordinate with multiple agencies in the Bay Area for response to an attack on mass transit by a CBRN (Chemical, Biological, Radiological and Nuclear) event and improve interagency cooperation. This included integration of the WMD (Weapons of Mass Destruction) Coordinator into the ICS (Incident Command System) structure of the response to such an attack. Several scenarios were designed to elicit a response from multiple first responders, both state and local: Police, Fire, Civil Defense, HazMat, Bomb Squad, and US Nuclear Corp/FlyCam UAV’s aerial reconnaissance for detection of radiation contamination of unknown source and location. The exercise was instrumental in fine-tuning the approach of responder

HYDROFRACKING & WATER

  What is the cost in contaminating our water? By Penelope Randall, Environmental Specialist, US Nuclear Corp Hydrofracking demands for water use is up 770 percent since 2011 according to a 2018 peer reviewed study out of Duke University. The use of millions of gallons of water and sand infused with up to 1,000 different toxic chemicals is used to fracture shale rock and release the trapped gas or oil. The wastewater, brine , and sludge are then returned to the surface and in need of disposal. Unfortunately, there is not yet a clear and safe method of disposal or storage. In many places this wastewater is reinjected into deep underground wastewater wells. There is mounting evidence that this method of disposal may be responsible for earthquakes and pollution of groundwater in some locations. The exponential growth of the hydrofracking industry and its practices constitutes a growing problem. Among these chemicals are radioactive isotopes which wastewater treatment plants are not equip
