Imagine how many fresh vegetables they could have with a miniaturized nuclear reactor on-site!
The limit right now is how much diesel they want to waste. Imagine the alternatives!
- marssaxman 3y agoNo need to imagine; it's been tried - McMurdo installed a nuclear power plant back in 1962. The reactor proved to be expensive and unreliable, so the Navy removed it a decade later. Cleaning up the mess took another seven years.
