At each of NNSA's eight sites [1], leading-edge research and development is carried out on key national security technologies critical to the United States and its allies. Programs include science, technology and engineering essential to sustaining the nation’s arsenal of nuclear weapons, plus a wide array of work on other efforts for the Departments of Defense and Homeland Security, among others, plus exquisite support to the Intelligence Community. The NNSA enterprise is home to some of the world’s finest R&D capabilities, including the largest lasers, fastest computers, most capable explosives and radiography facilities and, most importantly, some of the most creative and productive minds in science and engineering.
