Need to move to distributed (neighborhood size) Thorium instead of nuke.

Thorium is nuke. It’s a type of molten-salt reactor, included in Gen IV proposals

I'll wait for the more powerful Odinium reactors.

It's not clean. It still produces waste. That waste is very dangerous and expensive to dispose.

About a millionth as much waste as convention methods. And we can store it miles below the desert until we have better ways to manage it. Hell, the facility was already built

Elon can take care of it. Really, Not sarcasm. For the amount of material waste produced a yearly rocket to the sun each year is close to being cost effective. Bonus science probes can be sent to help offset cost.

Fusion will be the way to go when the technology is perfected.
