70 years of nuclear research on display at EBR-I
70 years ago on Dec. 20, 1951, Experimental Breeder Reactor-I (EBR-I) became the first power plant in the world to generate electricity using atomic energy.

Several former INL interns turned employees talk about their time as EBR-I Atomic Museum tour guides.
Although it’s hard to calculate the total brainpower of INL over its history, it’s impossible to imagine it without Bernice Paige.
Much of the research occurring at Idaho National Laboratory focuses on science, however, INL is also home to history that has shaped the its work.
A permanent “Way Out West” exhibit is scheduled to open Jan. 23, 2021 at the Museum of Idaho in Idaho Falls.
Two former residents of Idaho Falls and Arco have memories of the INL desert from when they were very, very young.
A family of INL employees talk about their connection to the Site, and more specifically, their ties to the Advanced Test Reactor.
A newcomer to INL, one employee feels a deep bond to the Site that stretches back to its early days as the National Reactor Testing Station.
For one family of INL employees, the lab provided a livable income while dad was in college, a career ladder for mom and a profession for their son.
They’ve never thought of themselves as an “INL family,” but a family of INL employees have experience with the lab that dates back several decades.
