Generating electricity via nuclear fission is a great idea, at least in principle. But the risk of nuclear meltdowns causing mass destruction and long-lasting contamination isn’t appealing. Luckily, a crop of companies are looking to solve this problem by creating subcritical nuclear reactors, which generate power without ever making runaway nuclear reactions possible. Let’s take a look.
