Use of radioactivity to explore oil and new fuels in United States, and other uses of atomic energy.

A man with a briefcase gets off a airplane and sets his brief case down. A plastic sheet production factory and rolls of colored plastic being created with the aid of a "Atom Ray" thickness gauge used in manufacturing. An oil drilling site. Drilling core samples of rock are extracted from the bottom of the hole. They are collected and sent to laboratory in a van. The core samples are irradiated in a particle accelerator or atom smasher and the response of different elements in the samples is observed, providing information about their composition. Activity is recorded on paper and a needle moves over a graph during particle acceleration. Engineer shows an experimental well logging device that contains a radiation source for use deep in the hole to determine nature of the strata without having to remove a core. Geologists examine a graph. Engineers subject oil samples to bombardment by neutrons in a nuclear reactor. Test apparatus is lowered down in a water pool. It is anchored to a movable rack and water is filled in the pool. The test apparatus is moved into position beside the atomic reactor uranium core. The core goes critical and irradiates the test sample with neutrons. Control equipment is switched on. Red sign illuminates with message "Reactor on." The core glows. An engineer looks to observe the test apparatus. Another engineer operates control equipment in front of a General Electric Reactor Control panel. Summary of role of radioactivity in ordinary life, in medicine, food production, manufacturing, transportation, and the home.
