I'd assume civilian reactors wouldn't have constraints nuclear submarine usage imposes, and perhaps could be engineered to be safe? Seems strange to bet again

Seems strange to bet against ingenuity.
- nabla9 5y agoIt seems to me that military reactors have better safety record than commercial despite accidents. I just listed the accidents. The safety becomes with cost and performance limit. It's hard to see how smaller nuclear reactors are significantly better than gas turbines in commercial use. The cost comes down with the size.
