Monju fast-breeder reaches criticality | The Japan Times Online
I see that Japan has just restarted a prototype fast-breeder reactor, which was halted some years ago after a sodium leak.
It's odd, isn't it, that one of the most earthquake prone countries in the world should also be the one forging ahead with developing a new type of nuclear reactor plant that has one good feature, and one somewhat scary one (molten sodium.)
As such, I am a bit unsure about whether to be impressed or worried.
