The quest for an alternative for fossil fuels continues. Nuclear power is one of the most efficient, scalable, and practical alternatives to fossil fuels like coal and natural gas, but its history has marred its potentially good name. 
While "nuclear power" may seem like one technology, it's actually an amalgamation of technologies used in various different reactors and processes, some more efficient, some more scalable. There's not just one kind of nuclear reactor or just one way to harness nuclear energy. In fact, there are 10s to hundreds of different reactor designs that could, in theory, transform the public perception of the energy source.
