The 'Nuclear Power Is Just Boiling Water' meme is a popular observation within scientific and engineering communities that pokes fun at the contrast between high-level nuclear physics and mechanical simplicity. While nuclear fission involves the complex splitting of atoms and sophisticated containment systems, the end goal is identical to that of a coal plant: generating heat to boil water. This steam then turns a turbine to produce electricity, leading to the common internet nickname for nuclear reactors: 'spicy tea kettles.' The meme is frequently used on platforms like Reddit and Twitter to demystify nuclear energy or to mock how humanity's most advanced technology is still fundamentally reliant on the same steam-power principles used during the Industrial Revolution.
