Comment on China’s Nuclear-Powered Containership: A Fluke Or The Future Of Shipping?

• Chocrates@lemmy.world ⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

  We are burning and drowning so I hope here is enough of a desire to make it happen this time.

  Militaries have a stellar record of not meeting down their ships (fact check me someone I havent looked this up) with barely trained 18 year olds, so until we have a renewable energy storage that can power a cargo vessel around the world without taking up too much mass, this might be the best option.

  I hear sails are coming back too though.

    Thresher.

    Here’s more if you want. I’m not against nuclear power but it’s maritime use is far more dangerous than power generation on land.
