Minecraft player built a Nuclear Power Plant in the game — complete with a reactor, turbine, and other components

Some player build castles in Minecraft, others build underground bases. Some like cities, while others prefer majestic cathedrals. But a player known as karma3000 on Reddit, took an unconventional path. He constructed a full-size nuclear power plant in the Mojang sandbox. Or at least one close to real size.

His nuclear power plant consists of three blocks — a nuclear reactor, a turbine hall, and a cooling tower. It includes:

• A control room with switches

• A nuclear reactor with pipes for water and steam, as well as a fuel rod

• High-pressure steam goes into a turbine, which generates energy

• A condenser turns the low-pressure steam back into water, which is sent to the cooling tower, where it's used again or discharged into a river

There's a substation and transformers for converting the generated energy into a form suitable for the power grid.

This is a simplified, but factually correct structure of real nuclear power plants. Of course, in real life, everything is much more complicated and more optimized, but the process is visualized correctly.

All that's left is to add Homer Simpson and Mr. Burns, as suggested in the comments to the video. And some suggesting going further and making a working version with mods.
