Peaceful nuclear explosion run an increased risk of fracturing the target near-Earth object. They also carry higher development and operations risks. Peaceful nuclear explosion Peaceful nuclear explosions (PNEs) are nuclear explosions conducted for non-military purposes. Proposed uses include excavation for the building of canals and harbours, electrical generation, the use of nuclear explosions to drive spacecraft, and as a form of wide-area fracking. PNEs were an area of some research from the late 1950s into the 1980s, primarily in the United States and Soviet Union. In the US, a series of tests were carried out under Project Plowshare.
