It's all a matter of what you believe in

Another way of saying what Napoleon Hill used to say---If you can conceive it, you can achieve it.

But I don't like battery powered planes.  No sir, they make about as much sense as nuclear powered planes.  Now, that's an idea.

The trouble with nuclear powered planes is that you have to have shielding for the radiation.  However, as this concept with batteries shows, you can minimize the amount of power needed, and maybe make batteries work.  I figure if you can make batteries work, you can make nuclear work better.

But it is all a matter of what you believe.  These people may end up making electric planes work, but if they can do this, they make make nuclear planes work too.  But people don't believe in nuclear, so that most likely won't ever happen.




If you had a small nuclear reactor, really small, you may be able to shield it without too much weight. It can do anything the battery can do, but better.
