U.S. Air Force selects fast microreactor for nuclear power pilot
Very excited to see some modern fast reactors happening!<p>Nuclear waste leaves me with such reservations, these fuel cycles where we use a % or two of the energy, create a bunch of tranuranic waste, and then deal with stuff for thousands of years.<p>Fasr reactors seem uneconomic, like something industry &amp; capitalism would never ever do. The negative impact of everything else is so easy to externalize. The risk of doing anything new or well is so low.<p>It&#x27;s enormously sad to find that military and military alone has the capacity to try new things, to invest better in the future. But here, I&#x27;ll take it.
