- hedora 4y agoWell, maybe, but most nuclear reactor designs are at least 50 years out of date, and a lot of progress was made between 1970 and 2000.
- neuronexmachina 4y agoDo you have the source where you heard that? Also worth noting that Fukushima, Chernobyl, and Three Mile Island were all built 50-60 years ago.
- BurningFrog 4y agoRight. This is a bit like evaluating airline safety based on the design of Amelia Earhart's plane.
