Would be interesting if somebody shows a RAD table to compare the radiation between Pu-288 and Sr-90 or Cb-60, i think cobalt or strontium have better values than Pu (used on cassini), but then..im not nuclear engineer ![Stick Out Tongue :p :p](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
The cassini generator use some kind of direct transformation from heat to electricity, not sure how could perform with a conventional mechanical cycle (stirling, since it seems the temperature is not high enough to use water/steam)
