The general consensus on the need to decarbonize the ways currently employed for producing energy is inevitably reigniting in many countries the discussion about nuclear power. The debate is still rich of opinions against this technology on the base of its alleged risks, costs and controversial origins. In the present paper, after a short overview of the origins of nuclear technology, we attempt to review such claims showing that majority of them are just baseless and anchored to unjustified assumptions.
