Nuclear Energy as a Potential Solution for Global Power Needs
1:40:56 - 1:46:14 (05:17)
Nuclear energy offers a more concentrated and efficient power source than fossil fuels, making it well-suited for powering large vehicles and scaling across the globe. Its main limitation is the need for a storage system, unlike fossil fuels, which have natural storage capabilities.
