This video needs more views and the practical research needs more funding

This is so great. I'm a mechanical engineering student with a desire to work in the nuclear energy industry. Nuclear power has such a big future, especially with the future implementation of fusion, and like you mentioned, reprocessing. I had no idea that only 5% of the fissionable isotopes are considered spent, and the rest is able to be utilized again. These videos are really awesome, and I take notes as well.

love this video man, your content is fire, Id love to see a video breaking down the economics of building a reprocessing facility that reprocesses spent nuclear fuel (SNF)

It would be good if we could make more Pu238 for the Radioactive Thermionic Generators I guess from neptunium. This generates the heat for spacecraft like the Voyagers, but also might be able to be used for small generators here on Earth. I enjoyed you video, thank you.

Good news, ORNL is working on producing more Pu238 and I am doing research that supports this effort!

Once you remove all the actinides and put them back in a reactor the remaining fission products CK away to less than uranium war in under 300 years and therefore don't even require a deep geologic repository let alone 5% fuel. This can be surface stored as it is currently being held and then wants us decay do near surface burial like we do for uranium or tailings.

"It even has its own sauna, which is probably a great place for storing caesium and Stro-" ahahaha
