On a related note, I very much like the fact that "The Martian" movie uses RTG as a life saving device and the best car climate control ever. It helps with the public perception that it's not that dangerous.
- nkrisc 9y agoGenerally I agree with you, but I don't know if it's wise to promote the unintended use of a device by a fictional character as a last hope in a dire survival situation as the bar for what's "safe". Regardless of whether it's actually safe, showing me it's safe enough to sit near in a situation where one would probably die anyway isn't exactly comforting.
