NNSA redirects $10 million to peaceful nuclear technology

Original: NNSA reallocates $10 million toward peaceful uses of nuclear technology

The US National Nuclear Security Administration is reallocating $10 million toward peaceful uses of nuclear technology, according to the American Nuclear Society. The shift funnels resources away from the agency's traditional weapons-focused work and into civilian applications such as medicine, energy and scientific research. Observers in the nuclear policy community are weighing what the move signals about the agency's budget priorities.

Why now: A US nuclear security agency shifting funds from weapons-related work toward civilian nuclear applications is a notable budget and policy development.
