8:23Now PlayingNeil deGrasse Tyson and Kathryn Huff explore the challenges of integrating nuclear energy into the broader clean energy narrative. They discuss how public perception—shaped by disasters like Chernobyl and Fukushima—contrasts with data showing that nuclear power is actually one of the safest and most efficient energy sources when measured by deaths per terawatt hour. The conversation also delves into the future of fusion energy, its current limitations, and the scientific optimism surrounding upcoming breakthroughs.
