Personal Nukes: Toshiba Builds Personal-Sized Micro Nuclear Reactor? Huh?

 

Sure, you can buy one for $25million, plant it in your backyard and power 10,000 homes.

Plus it may come in handie if anyone still has a Delorean that needs to go back to the 80's.

 

Gotta be a joke for one thing. I'd bet the costs to buy and operate it are pretty astronomical.

I love the idea of more nuclear power but I don't think the world is ready for individuals to possess such powerful technology.

I would love to go back to the 80s. I could get Doc some fresh Zubaz too.

 

I believe its real. Its self contained and encased in concrete - you cant gt into it. Supposed to power 16 homes.

 

Me too - maybe Id do better in high school and could get a better career...

Whats Zubaz??

 

I think Nuclear power is the way to go world wide, they just need a better way to deal with the waste. I think something like this may catch on, maybe not this year, maybe not in 10 years.....but IMO it will. It should be neat to see where it goes.

 

Nice! I am going to start digging the foundation for mine today!

 

Run an extension cord my direction, you are probably far enough away that I don't have to worry about hair falling out and kids growing extra toes and such.
