Did we not already learn our lesson that nuclear power plants on or near the ocean are bad, very very bad! Stop this nonsense. Build it on tracks or as a vehicle if you realy want to... anything but this!

@freemo Which are the reasons that we've learned the hard way that would still apply to ships? I thought we learned the hard way that building them near a shore is bad due to flooding risks, but that doesn't apply to ships that can move away from the shore.

In the responses you mention that containing leaks is easier on land, and that ships are less secure (are they less secure than land vehicles?). I don't think these are lessons that we learnt the hard way, so were you referring to something else too?

@robryk We learned that should a reactor have a malfunction for any reason resulting in a leak of nuclear material then having it near water prevents containment. Ergo should not be built near, or on the ocean.
