Hmmm, maybe we could use this for power plants and save the natural gas and other fuels to power transportation.

The car looks more like a stylized old Chevy truck.

You could plug it into the wall to power your house at night...

I remember when they tried the turbine in 1967.

I used Thorium as fuel for a while, back in the ‘70s, but I don’t think I properly shielded the container I used.
The last thing I remember before passing out is running around wearing a horned helmet and carrying a hammer.
After I got out of the ‘hospital’, I went back to regular gas.

OK, and how much does 8 grams of Thorium cost?

You could hear those turbines whine all the way around the track.

If you could build a reactor small enough for a car, seems it would make more sense to build one that was house-sized.
Then you could maybe sink it into the ground in the back yard for easy shielding, and you wouldn’t need to worry about crashes.
If we all had small power plants in our homes, then electric cars might not be so impractical.

So I guess that means I better get the undercarriage coating.

Radioisotope Thermoelectric Generators (RTGs) have powered all of our interplanetary fly-bys and other fancy space stuff for years. When do we get ours?

My first visit to IMS was for practice in 1967. The Offenhausers would roar by, and then came Parnelli Jones and “whoooosh.” He was so much faster it was like pitting an F-16 against Me-109s.
