China to Build Floating Nuclear Power Plant
2016-11-08
What could possibly go wrong?

(Rooters) - China has started to build its first floating nuclear power reactor, which it plans to deploy off its coast by the end of the decade.

The 200-megawatt reactor will help power offshore facilities in China's open sea and island reefs, CGN said, adding that offshore energy supply is an issue that China has to overcome in order to become a naval power.
So they're going to build a nuke plant on a boat?

#3  Nuclear powered war ships have been sailing the seven seas since the 50's. These plants will need to be able to withstand typhoons and tsunamis. They will either be ships or movable barges. Can you spell Fukushima?
