Although nuclear powered ships are nothing new, these things wouldn't power themselves, but a small city. Each one of them could produce enough power for 200 000 people. Am I the only one, who's feeling a bit nervous about this? Vicky
Nuclear Power Plants? How about Floating NPP's

Cool! I can't really see anything bad in that.
ReplyDeleteRelax, I've played Fallout and it's not that bad.
ReplyDeleteA floating NPP? That's only going to make them more vulnerable to terrorist attacks. If an oil spill could cause that much environmental damage, then imagine what an NPP meltdown would do.
ReplyDeleteThis would have interesting space applications if successful. Otherwise, a mobile Chernobyl sounds risky.
ReplyDeleteI guess they drop off the power every now and then... How does that work?
ReplyDeleteNew nuclear technology is much safer now than it was before, but a floating one? Yikes.
ReplyDeleteIt worries me too... what if that thing sinks? the ecological damage would be immeasurable.
ReplyDeleteSounds good. i am pro nuclear.
ReplyDeleteHow could this possibly go wrong?
ReplyDeleteWhat do they plan to do with that? Power actual cities?
ReplyDeleteSounds cool but dangerous
ReplyDeleteCool I guess. Whats the point though.
ReplyDelete"Relax, I've played Fallout and it's not that bad. " hahahahahahaha
ReplyDeleteI think that it's a pretty good idea. Although if you're going to have a floating nuclear plant, why not just convert it into a hydro plant? Not as much energy I suppose but safer. I'm sure technology will catch up.
ReplyDeleteSounds cool. I hope they take some safety measures though.
ReplyDeleteSeems a little redundant to me. Also, that boat looks like a Lego boat.
ReplyDeleteLOL. I agree with Silphil, it does look like a Lego boat! :)
ReplyDeleteany way to wirelessly transfer that energy?
ReplyDeleteIm not. What you're thinking about is an onboard meltdown, right? That happens when the water in the silo gets too hot and cant vent. On the sea you've got plenty of water and a safe direction to vent the steam. At least, safe for the passengers...
ReplyDeleteboat party!
ReplyDeleteI'm sure they'll have to come up with some sort of safety procedure, otherwise no way in hell would countries allow these ships to be built >_> aha interesting blog btw, following (:
