The fact that it turns nuclear waste into energy, and it's waste has a half life of 40-80 years instead of 2000 years makes me wonder why we haven't built 100 of these.
^^ This is one of the huge indicators that significant, man made climate change is BS. With nuclear reactors and electric vehicles we could drastically reduce carbon emissions. Must not be an issue.
No fissile material can be produced with these reactors so there was no interest in using them for power production in the latter 20th Century. The Air Force experimented with Thorium reactors to power heavy bombers so that they could remain airborne indefinitely. Mid air refueling made them lose interest.

Nuclear scare tactics. Eco crazy leftists hate nuclear energy even though it's the most environmentally friendly option there is.
