Films
gollark: What do they actually *do*, though?
gollark: Can you be more specific? IIRC Star Trek phasers did a gazillion random things depending on plot convenience.
gollark: I'm hoping there's some comparatively cheap way to at least mitigate the climatic issues, because otherwise it seems unlikely that (without massive societal change of some kind) much will be done.
gollark: In practice I think the fuel is unlikely to run out, given the multitude of ways to increase uranium use efficiency which aren't economical right now.
