ANSTO leverages great science to deliver big outcomes. We partner with scientists and engineers and apply new technologies to provide real-world benefits. Our work improves human health, saves lives, builds our industries and protects the environment.
ANSTO, as the Australian centre for nuclear-related research and as the custodian of large research infrastructure is well-positioned to undertake research on molten sale based reactor systems using its capabilities and expertise.
Do you love science? Here is a competition for you that combines chemistry and creativity! Discover the world of elements and create a poster for your favourite element in this new competition for school aged students.
Nuclear power is used as a reliable and clean energy solution in most OECD countries and many other parts of the world. Although it is banned in Australia, a number of government reviews are looking at current prohibitions on nuclear power.

Light and Colour More information coming soon
ANSTO’s online STEAM activity resources encourage creative exploration of Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics (STEM) by incorporating the arts (the A in STEAM).
These resources are based on the popular STEAM club online activities that were so effective in engaging children in active STEM investigations. Now you can have access to these activities at home or in the classroom, so you can do them at your convenience. You might like to use them during the school holidays! We hope you enjoy using these resources to explore science beyond the curriculum, with a creative approach. Only common items found around the home are needed, plus your imagination!
We will be adding new activities at the end of each term. So, watch this space for more engaging and creative STEAM experiences coming soon!
