npub1psdfxfpxz2cwmmnsk60y3nqpn2tqh9n24h4hstvfkwvr6eaek9js499sr7 (npub1psd…9sr7) I kinda feel like in the context of climate change a return to sailing ships makes a lot more sense than superfast nuclear freighters.
Like the earth isn't [that] big. Many container ships today (profitably) cross the Pacific slower than clipper ships in the 19th century (they go so slow to save on fuel costs).
If you really need to move tons of grain really fast with experimental tech, that's what airships are for.
