There was an enormous amount of fooferall around nuclear-powered satellites being flown out of Cape Canaveral, and the potential fallout on the general public if a rocket were to fail with such a payload. Then people just stopped talking about it, and we launch nuclear shit all the time. I still think we should package our nuke waste into rockets and shoot them at the Sun. But yeah... those rockets have to fly over someone's house on their way out of the atmosphere...
