Floating Nuke Plant

Nuclear sub

 

Ok, I can kind of see how this might cause some people to run in terror. The basic idea here is to take a nuclear power plant (the kind that would have run a nuclear sub) and stick it on a big ‘ol raft. That would be moored in remote locations of the Arctic circle and used to power what have you. Research stations, small towns, your guess is as good as mine. Sounds cool, except if it sinks. Or if someone makes off with it. Yeah…
