Henry Moore’s 12-foot bronze sculpture “Nuclear Energy” was commissioned for the 25th anniversary of the first controlled, self-sustaining chain reaction of Dec. 2, 1942. For this year’s #nuclear75 commemoration, a temporary art installation called “Nuclear Thresholds,” featuring hundreds of 75-foot-long cords of black rubber, was created using computational modeling.
