Open Q about nuclear power.
I understand that an operating nuke is pretty clean.
My reservations "kick in" once the fuel is spent, and is a mix of way-hot fission products mixed with a fair bit of the original fissionable material. Say, plutonium, with its ~25Kyr half-life.
Is there a safe, affordable way to deal with the spent fuel?
