On airLive from Reactor No. 1 · Hello, Neutropolis!

Too cheapto meter.Too fun not to watch.

Since 1951, one very happy reactor — Dottie, to her friends — has powered every toaster, robot butler and monorail in Neutropolis. We stopped sending bills in 1954. We never stopped watching the dials.

Greetings from Neutropolis!

Free reactor tours daily, 9 to 5. Wave at Dottie, ride the monorail loop and leave with a glow-in-the-dark souvenir.

  • A painted 1950s-style view of Neutropolis at dusk: a rocket-shaped reactor tower topped by a smiling atom, saucer towers, a monorail and a cooling tower puffing a heart-shaped cloud.
    Reactor No. 1 at duskDottie waves at every monorail. The monorail waves back.
  • A painted 1950s-style control room with seafoam consoles, gauges and Nixie tubes, two technicians with coffee looking out at a giant smiling atom.
    The control room, 9:41 a.m.Coffee break, as usual. Dottie runs herself.
  • A painted 1950s-style kitchen where a chrome toaster pops toast and a seafoam robot butler serves coffee, with a kidney-shaped pool and a flying car outside.
    Breakfast in Kidney Pool GardensToast by atom. Coffee by robot. Pool by law.
