I wrote an ultra-short story about this a couple years ago:
Quote :
Starry Starry Night

You look up into the vast bright sweep of stars in the sky and think sadly of all the love songs, all the treacly poems, all the sappy adolescent rhymes. Moon-June. Moonglow. Ebb tide.

The future, you say to yourself, will never be the same (but when was it?) "Unintended consequences" and all that. Mankind shooting itself in the foot, once again. As happens, so often, with our imperfect species.

But never like this before. The stars are stunning in their heavens.

Nuclear power is still a good idea. Nuclear waste is still a hazard until the end of time. These facts do not change.

But what a stupid place to put a reactor.
