This form of energy is certainly cleaner than the alternatives, but without adequate planning and protections, the potential for disaster is enormous.

Good. Now adjust the death rate for nuclear energy to cover the entire period that the nuclear fuel is dangerous for humans. You may have to let a few centuries pass to gather that data.

Until it’s not and contaminates a huge area, costs hundreds of billion of dollars to clean up, and lingers on for decades if not hundreds of years.  Other then that, it’s perfectly safe.  

There’s potential. The worry is that the broom could be presented as an anti-sat weapon. But we seem to have much more overt military threats to satellite infrastructure now, in addition to the massive current threat of the junk itself.

I’m anxiously awaiting the CCP’s space folks’ input on all of this. I guess I could go over to The Hill comments section to see if any have shown up there.
