Reply to comment by ThisistheInfiniteIs in Nation’s First Nuclear-Powered Clean Hydrogen Production Announced. The Nine Mile Point Generating Station, the oldest operating U.S. nuclear power plant, will soon house the nation’s first nuclear-powered clean hydrogen production facility by chopchopped

Not to pick apart your argument or whatever but most nuclear byproducts will last far less time than humans have been around. Plutonium-239 is 24000 years though.

Just wanted to help people understand.

I’d like to add that we could reprocess the fuel like other first world countries if we were ever able to establish a repository.

Edit - words. 24000 year half-life.
