Where 1132 fits
Why 1132 is special
Reactor fuel is normally uranium dioxide rather than the metal, precisely because the oxide's melting point is far higher — around 2,865 degrees — which provides a much larger safety margin.

Same number, different meanings
How 1132 is understood across different contexts — never implying one meaning because of another.

- History
In 1132, Fountains Abbey was founded in Yorkshire and became the wealthiest Cistercian house in England (England).
- Science
Uranium metal melts at about 1,132 degrees and uranium dioxide at roughly 2,865. Reactors use the oxide because the higher melting point is a safety margin against the fuel losing its shape.

In historical numeral systems
Egyptian
1 lotus, 1 coil of rope, 3 hobbles, 2 strokes
1 × 1,000 + 1 × 100 + 3 × 10 + 2 × 1 = 1,132. The signs are simply repeated and added; where they sit on the line is a matter of layout, not value.
Babylonian
1 corner wedge + 8 vertical wedges (sixties place), 5 corner wedges + 2 vertical wedges (units place)
18 × 60 + 52 = 1132. Places are separated by a space on the tablet, with the higher place written first.
Systems that simply cannot reach this value are left out. Where a script needs a font most readers do not have, the reading is given instead of the glyphs — see number systems for each system in full.

Uranium metal melts below iron, which is part of why reactor fuel is uranium dioxide instead — the oxide melts around 2,865 degrees and gives a far larger safety margin.
