It seems like #SpaceX launched the largest rocket ever without any of the usual precautions regarding blast effects and possible debris in case of any failure.
A city covered in dust, concrete debris as big as bowling balls and cars that got hit. What a mess!

With Japan restarting nuclear plants and looking to build new ones, maybe the anti-nuclear tide will change and we'll get support for newer, better, safer nuclear power stations. Now we just need to make them smaller and more reliable.
