- Ford Nucleon Scale Model, 1958 - This 3/8-scale model was built to explore how the future of energy might affect the future of automotive design. The Ford Nucleon would have been powered by a rear-mounted, self-contained nuclear reactor. This atomic-automobile idea assumed, of course, that issues with nuclear safety and the size and weight of nuclear reactors would eventually be resolved. The Nucleon was never produced.

- Nuclear Power Protest Apron, 1973-1982 - Carrie Dickerson -- a community activist who led an effort to prevent the construction of a nuclear power plant near Claremore, Oklahoma -- created this apron depicting alternative energy sources. Dickerson and her husband spent their retirement savings and mortgaged their farm to pay for legal proceedings and fees. Dickerson also raffled off quilts and aprons to fund the effort -- a cause she ultimately won.
