I can't put a nuclear station on my roof or in my basement
Were you... Were you going to?
I mean, a teenage boy scout once built something like an amateur reactor in a shed in his parents backyard shed, so I see nothing wrong with a tractor on the roof or in a basement.
Watch me.
Currently, no. With enough investments in nuclear and less fear mongering, it's possible that's be an option. Small scale nuclear reactors can exist and can be safe, and the amount of nuclear material they'd need is fairly small.
