"The idea behind the contest is to demonstrate how many beautiful girls and young women work in nuclear, because this industry has been closed from public for a long time and the word "atom" evoked usually negative feelings," explains Ilya Platonov, Nuclear.Ru's General Manager.
Nuclear.Ru is the organizer of the Miss Atom 2009, a web-based beauty pageant open to contestants, aged 18-35, that are employees of businesses, companies and institutions of the State Corporation “Rosatom”, its subcontractors and related entities in nuclear power and industry, research institutes, nuclear companies and organizations of former USSR countries as well as students of nuclear-related educational establishments.
The popular Miss Atom has been run since 2004. Apparently, last year was as hot as a fission core with a record 340 participants representing more than 60 organizations, businesses and educational institutions in nuclear related fields in Russia, Ukraine and Kazakhstan.
The Miss Atom2009 beauty contest award ceremony will be held in Moscow in March when the winner will be crowned in all her glowing glory.
