Скачать или смотреть After-Pop! A Brief Break Down of Nuclear Commercial Shipping

In this After-Pop!, host Danielle explores the rise of commercial nuclear propulsion and how companies like CORE Power are reimagining the future of maritime shipping. Unlike military nuclear propulsion systems, these next-gen commercial systems are designed to be safe, scalable, and fully integrated with international safeguards.


This episode covers:

• The technical differences between military nuclear propulsion and commercial nuclear electric propulsion
• Why advanced reactors like molten salt designs are ideal for maritime applications
• What Emergency Planning Zones (EPZs) are and how they apply to floating reactors
• The roles of the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and International Atomic Energy Agency (IAEA)
• Why the first nuclear-powered trade routes will likely be limited to specific corridors
