I think launching stuff with nuclear RTGs would probably be met with red tape :(. Even if they are basically impossible to destroy even with a failed launch. I'm sure it will happen again but sadly not as fast or as often as I wish we would.
- fotta 3y agoUhhh lots of stuff is launched with RTGs still. Curiosity is powered by an RTG.
- swagempire 3y agoAlmost everything uses RTGs now if it's going to be far from the sun (like past mars).
- mardifoufs 3y agoAhhh I heard there was controversy for some launches. I'm very glad I'm wrong, I think RTGs are so awesome and the closest we have to sci Fi energy generation in space.
