Episode notes
Advancements in technology over the past 50 years suggest the possibility of creating compact atomic batteries capable of powering homes and vehicles for generations. Isaac Asimov's insights highlight the reasonable expectation of such devices, which could eliminate the need for frequent charging of devices like smartphones and dramatically extend the range of electric vehicles. These nuclear batteries would facilitate energy independence by allowing homes to be situated anywhere, from remote islands to mountain tops, without reliance on traditional power lines or fossil fuels, thus promoting a future of sustainability and convenience.
