Government Companies Amazul and Nuclep Sign Contract for Construction of Nuclear Reactor to Equip the Navy’s Prosub Program Nuclear Submarine

Amazul (Amazônia Azul Tecnologias de Defesa S.A.) and Nuclep (Nuclebrás Equipamentos Pesados S.A.) signed, last Friday (10/11), the contract for the construction of part of the prototype of the nuclear reactor being developed by the Brazilian Navy.
The equipment is part of the propulsion system of the fifth and final submarine (SN-BR) of the Brazilian Navy’s Prosub program, which is being built at the ICN shipyard in Itaguaí. At ICN, the second submarine has a hull closure ceremony.

The contract signed between the parties provides for the manufacturing, assembly, and supply of the vessel (cylinder) and internal containment structures, as well as the manufacture of the primary shielding tank of the so-called Labgene (Nuclear Power Generation Laboratory).

Libya built over 4,000 kilometers of underground pipelines to bring water from the Sahara to coastal cities in a project that the government itself called the Eighth Wonder of the World.

Desert sand, previously discarded for being too smooth for concrete, becomes an ecological brick in the United Arab Emirates, dispensing with Portland cement, curing at room temperature, and attempting to transform dunes useless for construction into raw material for a new arid engineering.

Chinese woman planted trees for decades while sand buried part of her house, received $5,000 from an American in 1999, and helped transform the desert into a forest of 8 million trees in China.

He transformed an abandoned plastic water tank into an underground house in the “hobbit hole” style, using only repurposed pallet wood, without heavy machinery or expensive labor.

Almost 6,000 residents live concentrated along a single street nearly 9 km long in the interior of Poland. Houses form a continuous row, and behind them, narrow agricultural strips emerge, creating one of the most unusual rural patterns in Europe.

Described by astronauts as one of the most unlikely natural phenomena on Earth, the Okavango Delta spreads over up to 15,000 square kilometers in the middle of the desert and transforms Botswana into a living labyrinth of channels, islands, and flooded areas.

Scientists have created a material six times lighter than air, 75 times lighter than styrofoam, and that becomes stronger the more it is compressed: aerographite seems impossible, but it can reinforce structures, batteries, and satellites.

Goodbye to the microwave: the appliance present in 96% of Brazilian kitchens is starting to lose space to a single device capable of heating, baking, broiling, and preparing recipes like a microwave, electric oven, and air fryer, occupying practically the same spot on the counter.

Japan called him a fool for using clover and straw instead of fertilizer, but 40 years later Masanobu Fukuoka’s fields equaled the most productive farms in the country, and his book was translated into more than 25 languages.

Bored at home, a 13-year-old teenager discovered tutorials on building studio apartments, raised $1,500, and turned the family’s backyard into a construction site.

Few remember, but a woman entered the basement of her own house, dug 9.1 meters underground, installed ventilation, created a mine cart, and became famous on social media before being stopped by authorities.

Brazilian siblings aged 11 and 7 read 240 books in just one year and caught attention on social media: while many children spend hours on screens, they turned their family’s routine into an example of reading, discipline, and curiosity.

The legendary oak that, according to the story, hid Robin Hood from the Sheriff of Nottingham, died at the impressive age of 1,200 years in England, and the first chilling sign of its end was that no leaves sprouted on the tree this spring.

While the world looks at forests, the UN warns that the Earth is also threatened by the silent degradation of natural grasslands and savannas, ecosystems that cover half of the planet, support billions of people, and can exacerbate water, food, and climate crises.

The future of computers may change sooner than expected: Amazon bets on commercial quantum computing within seven years, while qubits, the Ocelot chip, AI, and scientific simulations take center stage in the new race among big techs.

Cheaper than new HB20, Onix, and Argo, this German sedan offers a 510-liter trunk, a 2.0 naturally aspirated engine, a 6-speed Tiptronic automatic transmission, and well-known mechanics; the 2016 Volkswagen Jetta Comfortline still draws attention in the used car market.
