Yes I know this isn't practical but we are building fictional worlds here, right? | |

A few of your prototypes for various items get written off for not living up to expectations, and "scrapped". In reality they get moved somewhere less noticeable and you setup your own private reactor to build your bombs. | |

| Apr 16, 2015 at 23:25 | comment | added | Gary Walker | I remarked on total lack of stealth in my answer. I am sure hiding the nuke production line will not be easy -- but hey, evil genius. I'm sure he is up to the task. In honesty, of course I know this would be very hard since they can detect radiation from orbit, and there are controls on centrifuges, etc. but if you can make this work, this is really only the practical way to get a large payload into orbit cheaply. | |
