Oh dear god, I just lost a considerable amount of brain cells...

A couple of questions, answer those or just, pardon my French, shut up:

How do you think all those hundreds of nuclear ship reactors will be built yearly?

Have you heard of NOx catalysts?

Are you aware of the possibility to generate hydrogen through electrolysis?

Hoe do you square the fact that litterally nobody in the shipping industries is making the case for nuclrar powered cargo vessels?

Literally nobody, huh? https://maritime-executive.com/article/abs-completes-groundb...

One study that didn't make it into shippings decarbonization initiative...

Any "brilliant" thoughts on zhe other questions? Or the fact that your articke ends with pointing out nuclear propulsion was considered promising in the 50s and was a dead end ultimately?

If you want to play the game of digging up studies that didn't go anywhere, I need some time so. Just from top of my head:

flying wing passanger aircraft, that was something! Even Airbus launched studies into it, and man was it promising!
