Business Hot Topic: Is the U.S. Ready to Embrace Nuclear Energy Again? A Small Town Experiment Sparks Deep Public Division!

Parsons, Kansas, is home to approximately 9,600 residents. This spring, U.S. company Deep Fission began drilling test boreholes outside the town, preparing to trial burying an entire small nuclear reactor one mile (about 1.6 km) underground for power generation. Never before has anyone attempted to operate a commercial nuclear reactor at such deep underground depths. Trump has been pushing for a 'nuclear renaissance,' planning to quadruple U.S. nuclear power generation by 2050, and Parsons has been seen as one of the pilot locations. However, this plan has deeply divided local residents. Some say, 'It’s not a bad idea to put it here,' while others worry, 'We’re becoming guinea pigs—that’s not good,' and 'Putting a nuclear reactor underground is kind of scary.'
