  • This. Boat. Rocks. At 300 metres long by 60 metres high it’s bigger than the Titanic. It runs on an exciting new breed of nuclear reactor, packs the latest quantum computer, and its luxury bunks are graced by the brightest minds and richest industrialists on the planet.
    It’s mission? Nothing short of saving the world.

  • @wolfgangrenner4152
    @wolfgangrenner4152 3 года назад +1

    It would be nice to be explained more about this "salt" nuclear reactor. Any way it must generate power/electricity. And thermally it works only with high pressure steam. I don't know, if a nuclear reactor can be run like a hydrogen cell, by generating electricity without thermal steam procedure. Every nuclear reaction generates radiation and nuclear waste. This is also true for fusion reactors. So any kind of nuclear energy is not a "clean" and "save" technology. If this ship sanks, the radioactive content pollutes the ocean. So in now way nuclear power can be praised as a clean future perspective. Also the idea of Bill Gates, that it is better to run ten 150 MW reactors than one 1500 MW (EPR type) reactor is nonsence. Each 150 MW unit needs to be protected against internal failure and external dangers like aircraft hits, terror or war activities. So you need much more concrete to save ten smaller nucler power stations than one bigger unit. The bigger unit must be build, that the interior can be exchanged, so the outer bunker structure can be used for centuries. Thats about nuclear energy. The ship is a nice luxury project like skyscrapers in Arabia. But it cannot save the world !

    Antarctica is not the South Pole therefore it can not be crossed like the North Pole...it can only be circumnavigated around its outer perimeter ice belt like Captain Cook did in the past.

      the Nimitz reactors are not MSRs. They are PWRs.
